   Stabbing deaths and injuries are more common in Europe than in the   
   Americas. Particularly in northern Europe, where levels of knife crimes   
   among young people have increased and made headlines. Deaths by sharp   
   objects are especially noticeable in the 15-19 and 20-24 age groups in   
   Northern and Western European countries. The proportion of knife deaths is   
   about three times greater than firearm deaths in these countries for the   
   20-24 age group. Between 2002 and 2007, hospital admissions for assault by   
   a knife or sharp object increased by 34%. One high-profile example of   
   homicide by knife in Europe occurred in 2013, when a 13-year-old girl was   
   stabbed to death in the United Kingdom. Her death sparked anti-knife   
   campaigns throughout the U.K.
