After random stabbing attacks, how safe are our streets?

Two random knife attacks in a few days have rattled the nation. The motivations behind the incidents are still unclear, but they’ve drawn attention to the rising issue of violence on our streets. Are these one-off incidents or examples of a growing problem - and what are the police doing to keep New Zealanders safe?    Today, NZ Herald senior reporter Kurt Bayer joins Damien for a discussion about growing concern of street violence.
