Cops storm flat in the early hours of the morning
POLICE have seized four guns after storming a South Kilburn flat in the early hours of this morning (Tuesday).
Officers uncovered three pistols, a shotgun, ammunition, class A and B drugs after raiding the address in Bronte House, Cambridge Road, at 12.40am.
A 48-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of drugs and firearms offences and is currently being questioned.
Cllr Lincoln Beswick, Brent Council’s lead member for crime and community safety, told the Times there was no hiding place in the borough for anyone with guns.
He added: “We have a zero tolerance policy to any violent crime within our borders and we will support the removal of any individual who commits any violent crime within our borders.
“We will not tolerate the carrying of guns, any weapons or any violent crime.
“There will be a knock at your door and we will search out any individual who carries weapons of mass destruction.”
