Medieval-style 'BOMMY-KNOCKER' spiked club among an astonishing haul of weapons handed in during a police amnesty
Police were shocked when someone handed in a medieval-style 'bommy-knocker' during a guns and knives amnesty.
Officers in Bedford allowed members of the public to hand in weapons without fear of prosecution as part of a campaign to take items of the streets.
Along with the handguns and blades which were handed in however, was the gruesome-looking metal flail like those used by warriors in the Middle Ages.
The fearsome weapon, along with 2,000 knives and an assortment of guns collected by the police, will now be destroyed to ensure they do not end up in the hands of criminals.
Bedfordshire's Sergeant Ben Dimmock said: 'While we get used to seeing all kinds of things handed in during these campaigns, the flail was a particularly gruesome piece of equipment capable of inflicting serious injuries of worse. It is now in the best place for it – the crusher.'
As part of a nation-wide campaign called Operation Sceptre, forces around the country are urging people to hand in their so-called 'zombie knives' - those which have a serrated edge - which were recently banned.
