Police have taped off parts of a residential street.

A cordon is in place in Beaconsfield Road in Canterbury at the junction with Shaftesbury Road.

An air ambulance was also seen taking off from behind the houses at around 8.15pm.

A witness, who did not want to be named, said: "No one I've spoken to seems to know for definite what has happened.

“But there are rumours there has been a stabbing.

"The police are just walking about looking busy."

There is another cordon further up the road, near St Stephens roundabout.

Police have been approached for further information.

More as we get it.
