Police constable Ben Sly said: “This morning (September 5) a quantity of drugs, along with weapons and money were recovered from the address and a man arrested after a warrant was carried out in Warndon.

“This warrant shows we will not tolerate drugs and weapons within our community and will continue to act on information given to us.

“The Warndon community can help us by continuing to report any signs of criminal activity to us – the easiest way to do this is on our website.

"Any bit of information, no matter how small it may seem, could help make a big difference.”
