A 30-year-old man has been arrested after police raided a property and seized "a substantial quantity of cannabis and a zombie-style knife".

Avon and Somerset Police searched a building on Victoria Bridge Road in Bath city centre on Wednesday, after receiving a tip off about suspected drug dealing.

The man was arrested on suspicion of possessing and being concerned in the supply of a controlled Class B drug, and possession of an illegal weapon.

Officers seized "suspected cannabis, weapons and equipment associated with drugs supply", police said.

A police spokesperson added: "Officers spent time engaging with communities in the area following the operation and providing reassurance.

"Nobody should have to endure criminality in their community, and we’d encourage anyone with information about drug supply to please report it on 101 or online."
