Police have issued e-fits of two suspects after a man suffered serious facial injuries when he was kicked and stamped on in an attempted robbery.

The victim, a man in his 20s, was walking along Kingsmead Road in Canterbury when he was approached by two men who asked him for money.

When he refused, the pair knocked him to the ground and repeatedly kicked and stamped on him before rifling through his pockets.

The victim was left with serious facial injuries that needed treatment in hospital.

A police spokesman said: “His pockets were searched but nothing was stolen during the incident.

“Both offenders were described as slim white men, around 6 feet tall, who wore jeans, jumpers and coats.

“One was believed to be blonde and the other offender had brown hair.”

The incident happened between 11pm and midnight on Saturday, November 19.

Following an appeal for information last week, officers are now urging anyone who recognises the men in the images, or who has private CCTV or dashcam footage that could help, to call 01843 222289 quoting 46/224707/22.

Witnesses can also contact the charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, by calling 0800 555 111 or using the anonymous online form at Crimestoppers-uk.org.
