A 18-old-man was charged last week with possession of cannabis and possession of a firearm and prohibited weapons after police raided a room at the YMCA in Croydon.
Reon Wong was arrested and appeared at Croydon Magistrates' Court last Thursday after police entered a room at the hostel in St James Road and found a hand gun wrapped in a sock in a bag.
Mr Wong is due to appear at Croydon Crown Court on Thursday, March 29.
