On Wednesday 11 April at approximately 1pm, officers were on foot patrol in Hart Grove, W5.
They came across a man in a car in possession of cannabis, and further checks revealed a kitchen knife and a weights bar bell and a further quantity of cannabis.
The man, aged 19, was arrested for the following offences:
Possession of Cannabis

Possession of Offensive Weapon (x 2)
A search was carried out at the man's property where police recovered more cannabis, a set of scales, a large quantity of cash and also two live bullets believed to be active 9mm.
