East Area Violence Suppression Unit arrest man threatening to shoot a family.

Well done to East Area Violence Suppression Unit who yesterday arrested a male after he threatened to shoot his ex-partners’s family.

With help from the police helicopter and the Met Police Firearms team, the male was stopped and arrested after wanting to shoot the family with a gun.

He was subsequently further arrested for drugs supply after a large haul of drugs was found.

Well done to all involved.
