A BATON with pins sticking out of it was among a haul of terrifying Mad Max-style weapons seized by cops in a drugs raid.

A truncheon with a twopronged fork taped to it and a stick stuck to an axe blade were also discovered.

Officers found a cannabis farm underneath the stairs of the property in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, and packets of marijuana in the kitchen.

Cash and several mobile phones were also seized from the house.

Two men, aged 29 and 59, were arrested at the scene on suspicion of the cultivatio­n and supply of drugs. Both were released pending further investigat­ion.
