Police Dog (PD) Hugo helped to search round nearby gardens and quickly found the man behind a garage.\u00a0 A quantity of drugs and a Samurai sword were found in the car, and the man was arrested on suspicion of possession of drugs with intent to supply and possession of an offensive weapon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">\u2022<\/span>Later that day, at 11.30pm, an assault occurred in Redbridge. Two men were seen running off after the incident. PD Nahla got stuck in and helped search gardens in the area. She helped find one suspect \u2013 and she also found can of CS spray, which was probably dropped by the suspect. While PD Nahla was searching away, PD Ziggy and PD Sky joined forces to find the second suspect \u2013 quickly locating him hiding on a nearby garage roof. Officers arrested him on suspicion of Grievous Bodily Harm and firearms offences.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">\u2022<\/span>On Saturday evening, it was the turn of PD Yara, who helped police search a car in Hackney \u2013 and find 30 wraps of Class A drugs. Police arrested two people \u2013 and later found more drugs when they searched the driver\u2019s home.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chief Inspector Graham Horwood of the M07 Taskforce said, \u201cAt all hours of the day and night, our police dogs and their handlers stand ready to support their colleagues. It is their training and abilities that helps find the evasive suspect or locate the hidden evidence. Time and time again those guilty of serious offences are brought to justice because of the partnership between our officers and their dogs; both make an outstanding contribution to keeping London safe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>\u25cfTo catch up with the news in East London, go to:<br \/>\n<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/eastlondonnews.co.uk\/\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em>East London News<\/em><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">\u25cfWatch East London\u2019s weekly news magazine programme,<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">live at 10pm every Tuesday and on demand all week:<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/VodTalk\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em>The Tuesday Show<\/em><\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MOST POLICING in London is carried out by human officers in the Metropolitan Police.
