TY - JOUR PY - 2000// TI - Knives and armed robbery JO - Trends and issues in crime and criminal justice A1 - Ogilvie, Emma SP - EP - VL - 159 IS - N2 - Knives are used during armed robberies at between 2 and 3 times the level of firearms. This paper brings together new data on robbery, noting the strong presence of knives. Ogilvie suggests that knife use needs to be viewed as a critical issue and collaborative work undertaken to contain knife use. Her paper is a first step in that process. This paper is taken from the report of research undertaken with the assistance of a grant from the Criminology Research Council.
