Local conservationists say there was a confrontation with a man who was defying a protection order.
A man has been arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage after 131 trees were cut down in south London.
Several items were also seized, including chainsaws, the force said in a statement. The man was later released on bail.The Friends of Cator and Alexandra, a group of residents who look after local parkland, told the BBC that they applied for a Tree Protection Order a few weeks ago after seeing trees being cut down.
Sarah Counsell from the Cator Woodland Action Group said: "Early on Saturday morning, despite a TPO in place, a man instructed trees to be cut down in the field adjacent to the park. "This place is very special to this community and what they've done here is utterly barbaric," she added.
