A man is in custody after being found carrying 18 knives, which Police says were likely destined for south London gangs.
The 23 year old was arrested by Specialist Crime officers carrying out a proactive operation to crack down on gang-related violence.

After resisting the stop and search, officers discovered 18 knives as well as a quantity of class A and B drugs in a drawstring bag.
The man was arrested on suspicion of possession of offensive weapons, and with intent to supply class A and B drugs.
