KNIFE NOTTINGHAM

An area of Nottingham’s got the highest rate for hospital admissions from knife incidents.

Yesterday the Queens Medical Centre revealed that they treated nearly 400 patients stabbed or injured by a knife between January 2004 and September 2008.

Fifty of these were from the NG7 area- which includes Radford, Forest Fields and Hyson Green – a higher rate than anywhere else in the city.

The St. Ann's and Mapperley areas were second - with forty-eight cases.
