Five people who were arrested after a reported high street brawl have been bailed.

It had been reported a man was seen with blood pouring from his head near Spital Street in Dartford on February 6.

At least four ambulances and five police cars were seen in the area just after 6pm.

One witness said: "I was in town when it happened – there was a big pool of blood outside McDonald's."

A spokesman for the force said: “We were called at 6.18pm on Tuesday, February 6 to a report of a disturbance in Dartford High Street.

"Officers attended the scene where five men were arrested on suspicion of a public order offence.

The five men arrested in connection with the incident have since been bailed to return to a police station on May 5 and 6, pending further investigation.
