Police released an image of the drugs and cash

A large haul of drugs, cash and a so-called zombie knife have been seized in a Liverpool house raid.

Police said they were led to a property in the Everton area of the city on Monday after stopping a man acting suspiciously on an illegally adapted cycle and noticing a strong smell of cannabis.

A search of the house uncovered large amounts of suspected cocaine, heroin and cannabis, as well as the knife and about £2,000 in banknotes.

Merseyside Police said a 42-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possession of Class A drugs with intent to supply, possession of a controlled Class B drug, possession of criminal property and possession of an offensive weapon.

Insp Chris Taylor said: "Drug dealing brings violence, exploitation and fear into our communities and it will not be tolerated."
