Police have warned residents in the borough about a dangerous horse painkiller that was stolen this week.
Approximately 30 packets of the powered painkiller were in a Vauxhall Corsa which was taken from Ray Lodge Road in Woodford Green between the hours of 11.40pm on Tuesday and 11am on Wednesday.
A police spokesman said: “The 56-year-old car owner uses the product on horses and has told officers that if taken by humans, it could be lethal.”
Police are warning people that if they are offered the drugs or find them dumped somewhere they should contact Redbridge police immediately on 0300 123 321
