#NoMoreKnives

​

Viking can today reveal the shocking scale of knife crime in Yorkshire & Northern Lincolnshire as we launch a campaign to rid our streets of weapons.

We're teaming up with the sister of a Hull dad who died following a knife attack.

Kayleigh Pepper's brother, Richard, was stabbed to death on Egton Street in Hull almost three years ago.

We've been back to the scene together as we launch our #NoMoreKnives campaign to prevent others facing a tragedy like it.

We'll be working with Kayleigh and Humberside Police who are going into schools telling young people that carrying a knife - could lose a life.

We can reveal that in just six months last year there were more than 400 knife related incidents in Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire - sadly three people were killed.
