A police dog helped sniff out and find a large quantity of cannabis and a rambo knife as part of drugs and firearms warrants in Gants Hill.

On Friday, May 7 the Met's East Area drugs focus team carried out warrants at an address in Frinton Mews.

One man was arrested on suspicion of possession of Class B drugs with intent to supply and another man was arrested on suspicion of supplying drugs.

Both were released under investigation, whilst further enquiries are underway.

A spokesperson for the Met Police said: "A large quantity of cannabis, scales and phones were seized and a rambo knife was recovered."

The team were assisted by Police Dog Lloyd, who was on loan from the City of London to help with the operation.
