Police patrols in Ruislip over the weekend led to a drugs seize after nitrous oxide cannisters and bags of cannabis were discovered at a football ground.

Officers attended Wealdstone Football Club in Grosvenor Vale on Sunday night (August 21) after eight or nine people were trespassing on the site.

The drugs were found in the area but officers were unable to attribute them to anyone so no arrests could be made.
