A police operation at Abbey Wood Station last night (November 14) has seen three people arrested and several knives and drugs confiscated.

Bexley Police conducted a 'disruption operation' at the train station, setting up a metal detector and searching members of the public.

One man was arrested for possession of class A drugs and blades, and another male was arrested for immigration offences, and possession of class B drugs.

Police also caught and arrested a third person, a woman wanted for several offences at Medway Magistrates Court.

A knife was found discarded at the station and an investigation is ongoing to find its owner.

The disruption operation was delivered in conjunction with British Transport Police, Govia Thameslink Railway and TfL Rail.
