Police recover knife, drugs and £2,000 cash in raid on Luton property advertised as Airbnb
Police recovered a zombie knife, Class A drugs and £2,000 in cash after raiding a Luton property that was being advertised as an Airbnb.
Officers from the Luton South and East Community Policing Team raided the address in the town on Friday, August 21.
The property, which was being advertised as an Airbnb, was being used for suspected drug-related activity, with underage individuals present.
Two males and one female were found inside, with police reporting that one of the men attempted to escape through a window.
But after seeing an officer below, he abandoned the bid for freedom and instead threw a bag from the window, which contained a ‘significant quantity’ of Class A drugs along with a set of weighing scales.
Police uncovered £2,000 along with a stab vest, with a large zombie knife hidden inside.
All three people were arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs.
