Rob Knox, an eighteen year old actor was stabbed to death in a bar in London Saturday morning. He wasn't the only one who was injured and taken to the hospital. Oddly enough, the fight, according to the police was said to not be gang related. Gang violence was the cause of fourteen prior deaths in London as of this year. Rob Knox was recently in the latest "Harry Potter" movie playing a Ravenclaw student. With this homicide included, mayor Boris Johnson plans to end these violent crimes in the Metropolitan area. He has created a new program to search anyone who seems suspicious of possessing a knife on them. Unfortunately, England's children's commissioner, Sir Al Aynsley-Green has said that this new program could be too aggressive and that it would tell young adults to not trust police officers, instead of helping.
This is newsworthy because personally, I would have never known how bad bar crimes can be. When I read this article, it the actor being apart of Harry Potter that got my interested. His death has sparked the mayor to change the rules and make sure that London is safe. This is important to see what a mayor will do to keep his/her city safe, and how people might oppose it.
Harry Potter Actor Killed-What Next?
Are there going to be any more laws enforced in London to end bar violence?
