A man was hit by a ball bearing during a spate of catapult attacks along a residential road.

It was reported that between 2.45pm and 3.15pm on Monday (May 13), damage was caused to several residential properties in Sleigh Road, Sturry, near Canterbury.

Windows were broken and solar panels were damaged by small ball bearings, believed to have been fired from a catapult.

During the incident, a man was hit by one of the ball bearings which had ricocheted off a building. He was not injured.

Police are also looking into a similar report of criminal damage to an address which took place on the same street between May 3 and 4.

Officers would like to identify two boys aged around 16 years old who were seen in the area at the time of the incident on Monday.

Both boys were described as white, slim and 5ft 7ins tall.

One was believed to be blonde and wore a white top, blue trousers and a grey jumper around his shoulders.

The second boy had brown hair and wore a grey jumper with a dark grey tracksuit.
