Police are to monitor a Norwich homeless shelter after a man living next door reported the stench of cannabis seeping in to his living room.

Kevin Morgan, 67, who has lived in Cavell Road, Lakenham for 46 years, has lived next to the homeless shelter with no issues for two years, but since Christmas has reported drug taking, drug dealing and anti-social behaviour.

And now police say they have met with Mr Morgan to discuss his concerns and agreed to monitor the shelter.

Norwich Evening News:

Officers said no criminal offences were identified on their visit.

Mr Morgan believes adverse weather in December saw the charity welcome new people to keep them out of the cold.

But he says since this happened there was a spate of anti-social behaviour and his living room is stained with the smell of cannabis.

Norwich Evening News:

He said: "Get them out or get them sorted, it's been a nightmare.

"My living room stinks of dope, it's coming through the walls."

St Martins, which provides crucial support for the city's homeless, has also pledged to take action.
