A hunt is under way to find a pair of men after two women were attacked at a nightclub's charity boxing night.

The attack happened mid way through the event in the Ocean Rooms, in Queen Street, Deal.

The two, one aged in her 30s and the other in her 50s, were assaulted after objects were thrown at them.

One suffered bruises and the other was taken to hospital with a head injury.

The alleged assault happened at around 10pm on Saturday, September 7 during an organised event at the club.

Now, police are hoping to speak to two men who may be able to assist them with their inquiries.

Witnesses are being urged to help identify the two men pictured in CCTV images, released by police today.

The violence prompted the club to publish a statement the day after the event.

It read: "We are gutted and upset after last nights events.

"We would personally like to apologise to everyone at the event, unfortunately some things are out of our control and these people ruined what was a great show.

"The fights that were unable to continue will be rescheduled and if you have a ticket to their fight you will be able to use for the next fight.

"We have no words, we can only apologise and hope to make it up to everyone."

A spokesman said: "A number of inquiries have been carried out and now police are appealing to identify the men in the images who may hold important information.

"If you recognise the men or have information which may assist the investigation call 01843 222289 quoting reference 46/172828/19.

"Alternatively, you can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously by calling 0800 555 111 or using the anonymous online form at Crimestoppers-uk.org."
