Teen Arrested After Police Seize ‘Zombie Knife’ in Harold Hill.

Police have seized a terrifying zombie knife from a Harold Hill home after reports of a young person armed with a large blade.

Officers were first called to a residential address on Wednesday, 5 November, after being alerted that a youth was believed to be in possession of a knife. A search of the property led to the discovery of a large zombie-style weapon — but the suspect was not home.

Police returned to the address the following day, Thursday, 6 November, where a 16-year-old boy was arrested on suspicion of possessing an offensive weapon.

During a further search, officers also found cannabis. The teenager has since been charged with both offences and is due to appear before Barkingside Youth Magistrates’ Court next month.

Anyone with information about knife crime is urged to call 101. Alternatively, information can be given anonymously to Fearless or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
