In Great Britain, knife crime is rising precipitously, and one reason suspected for the increase is a game that scores knife attacks that is followed by gangs on social media.
The vicious game, called “The Tally Up” challenge, aka “Street Scores” or “Street Shark,” entails gang members scoring 50 points for stabbing someone in the head, 30 points for stabbing someone in the arm, and 20 points for knifing someone in the stomach. According to The Sun, “The craze is spreading through Snapchat and Instagram and is referenced in drill rap videos.”
