Man jailed for carrying a hunting knife
A Croydon man has been jailed for four months for carrying a hunting knife in public.
Twenty-year-old Kassim Green of St James Road pleaded guilty on Thursday, August 17 at Wimbledon Magistrate's Court to carrying the hunting knife through Wandsworth Borough earlier this month.
The offence was deemed so serious because of previous convictions against Green of a similar nature.
A collection order was also made on the knife for it to be destroyed.
