Weapons including a sword and a machete were today seized by police during a drugs raid at a home in south-east London.
The objects, along with a can of CS gas, were found in an electrical cupboard at an address in St Mary's Cray, Bromley after a search just before 5am, police say.
Officers in Bromley executed two search warrants in the area, simultaneously, following concerns about drugs.
Sergeant Paul Law tweeted: “When people question why police enter a property aggressively, fast and loud when executing warrants - this is why.
“Also found by the front door when the @MPSBromley task force executed a warrant this morning was this can if CS gas.”
Police said a 23-year-old man and a 33-year-old man were arrested following the raids.
The younger man, whose home the weapons were discovered in, was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply and conspiracy to cultivate cannabis.
The weapons were also seized.
The older man was arrested on suspicion of possession, conspiracy to cultivate cannabis and concerned in the supply of a class B drug.
Sergeant Law told the Standard: "This was an intelligence led operation and is a really good result for us. We have got weapons and drugs off the street.
"It just goes to show we do listen to members of the public and act on their concerns."
