Why child violent crime suspects are 'getting younger'

An increasing proportion of children aged between 10 and 14 years old are suspected of committing violent crime in London, in comparison to other young people, a report has found.

According to Met Police figures, 7,512 children aged between 10 and 14 were suspected of violent crime, including knife offences, in 2023, a rise of 38% from 2020.

BBC London's Home Affairs Correspondent Sonja Jessup has been to a school in south-east London to see one scheme that's been set up to tackle the issue.
