Description:
In response to a series of violent attacks, the state government is proposing new legislation that would empower police with broader authority to conduct searches for knives. Under the proposed laws, police officers would have the ability to use metal-detection wands on individuals within designated areas at their discretion. While law enforcement officials have expressed support for the new powers, the proposal has drawn criticism from those who view it as an excessive and potentially dangerous expansion of police authority.
