A gang of eight men are wanted by police after an assault that saw a teenager taken to hospital.
Two teenage boys were injured following the incident in Ashford yesterday.
Police descended on the South Willesborough area of the town at 2.15pm and closed off the road.
It is believed that the teenagers were assaulted during a disturbance involving two groups in parkland near Herbert Road.
One was taken to the William Harvey Hospital where he was treated for a hand injury.
The suspects are described as a group of up to eight men of Asian appearance wearing hooded tops, said police, and one may have had a scooter with him.
A police spokesman said: "Officers will be carrying out additional patrols in the area and wish to thank those witnesses who have already spoken to police."
Anyone with information who has not yet come forward, should call Kent Police on 01843 222289 quoting 46/161312/20.
