Drug cops with a sniffer dog raided two properties in Sutton this morning, to curb dealing in the Collingwood and Benhill parks.

Officers searched a flat in Killick House in Crown Road, Sutton, at 7.30am and arrested a 16-year-old for possession and intent to supply cannabis.

He was arrested after police found a huge stash of weed and wads of cash in the flat.

At the same time officers searched a property in Ashton Close, Sutton, but no arrests were made.

The operation was led by Sutton’s Safer Parks police teams.

Drugs paraphernalia was also seized from both properties.
