Police in Lewisham slammed a man who was arrested after allegedly snorting cocaine outside the "largest police station in the country".

The partygoer was arrested outside the police station on Lewisham High Street in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Lewisham MPS took to Twitter to say: "A little tip... If you want to snort cocaine after a night out, try not to do it right outside the largest police station in the country..."

They then posted a picture of a man being in handcuffs directly outside the entrance to the station, adding: "This male was detained by night duty C team officers and is now seeing the inside of the station!"

Later in the night shift police were called to Lewisham hospital where a man was abusing medics and security staff.

Police were called in to assist officers from MPS Bromley and the man was detained overnight in Lewisham police station.
