Police are on the hunt for a drunk man wielding a weapon on multiple trains this morning.

British Transport Police say the man wearing knuckledusters exited a train at Canterbury West railway station after being spotted by a vigilant Southeastern worker.

Police were called before the man boarded a service on its way towards Ashford.

The guard on this locomotive was able to seize the weapons but the suspect alighted at Chilham before he could be apprehended.

Officers have now launched an investigation and are now in the process of awaiting CCTV footage in order to ID the offender.
