Nottinghamshire Police Detective Sergeant Nathan Bingham said: “As our coordinated response to these reported incidents has shown, Nottinghamshire Police treats weapon-related crime extremely seriously.
“Our priority is to keep people safe and reduce any risk as soon as possible, and this was a great example of that commitment as officers were quickly deployed and made arrests soon after.
“The consequences of carrying a knife can be devastating which is why the force continues to work hard every day to tackle the issue and target people who carry weapons on our streets as well as focusing on proactive work with partners to prevent weapon-enabled crime and violence from happening in the first place.
“We remain determined to drive down knife crime in our communities and the public’s continued support is key to helping us to achieve our goal.”
