Police are investigating after two boys were robbed by a gang of teenagers on Friday.

Officers say a group of five black men, between 5ft 10in and 6ft, threatened two victims with a weapon at the junction of Hythe Street and Suffolk Road, in Dartford, at around 6pm.

The group then stole one of the pairs mobile phones as well as some cash.

Officers attended at the time of the incident and searched the area but couldn't locate any suspects and are now appealing to anyone who may have information.

Police spokesman Charlotte North said: "They were seen wearing dark clothing – a mixture of jumpers and tracksuit bottoms. Two of them were wearing hats and one had a coat with a fur hood, smart grey trousers with thin stripes and tanned-coloured shoes."

Witnesses or anyone with information is urged to call the appeal line on 01474 366149 quoting 46/223873/19.
