Police have arrested a pensioner in connection with an alleged sexual assault on a teenage boy on a bus.

Officers issued CCTV images yesterday in an effort to track down the suspect, after the boy reported the incident on the 10X service between Lenham and Ashford at 4.30pm on Saturday, December 2.

Now they say a 67-year-old man has been arrested and released on bail until Thursday, January 25.

The investigation continues.
