Avon and Somerset Constabulary installed the 'knife surrender bin' following a 52 per cent spike in knife crime across the force area in the past year.
But a day later the bin in Weston-super-Mare was broken into and the knives were taken.
PC Jon Biggins said: "On the evening of March 13, the knife surrender bin in Weston was broken into by a number of people.

I wonder if they used a knife to cut their way into the bin?

That chain looks like the right wino could have pissed on it and dissolved it.

Yo baby, yo baby!

Somebody should give those "Knife Liberators" a pint or two to thank them for sticking it to the plod good and proper.

That's a great idea. I'm going to put out a gun amnesty bin and make sure un-wanted guns don't fall into the wrong hands!

If only there were a gps tracker on each blade.....

The knife surrender cuts both ways....

Maybe it was just empty?

I’d have taken the whole thing.
That’s a pretty nice trash can.
