Young people are becoming desensitised to potentially harmful material they view online, a senior police officer has said, as a boy was locked up for terror and weapons offences.
The 15-year-old boy, from Market Drayton in Shropshire, was sentenced to 18 months in custody with a further year on licence at the Old Bailey on Friday after earlier admitting possessing a butterfly knife, a stun gun, a baton and crossbow at his home, and having terrorist information relating to manifestos of those who went on to commit acts of terror.
