Councillor McKnight said a concerned local resident had come to the Sinn Féin office yesterday morning with a discarded syringe, which he found close to family homes in the Cornshell Field area.
“This was a very concerning experience for this resident who has teenage children of their own,” Colr. McKnight said.
