Police are searching for a group of yobs who were caught on camera running amok in a block of flats.

One of the youths was filmed relieving himself on the landing carpet as others watched. He can clearly be seen in the footage.

A video shows the five teenagers - three youths and two girls - kicking down a door and forcing their into the flats in New Street, Dover, in the early hours of Saturday, October 14.

Closed circuit TV footage was uploaded to Facebook by lettings agency The Accommodation Shop and has gone viral with more than 31,000 views and nearly 700 shares.

The vandals also smashed part of the staircase.

The lettings agency wrote: "Several delightful people smashed their way into a block of flats in Dover town centre and caused several hundred pounds worth of damage including damage to the fire control system.

"Please feel free to share this across Dover and the surrounds in the hope we can find the culprits."

The attack happened between midnight and 2am.

Police have been given copies of the video and are asking for anyone who saw or heard anything to contact them on 101, quoting crime reference ZY/050257/17.

A spokesman confirmed officers were still making inquiries although at least two of the gang have apparently since been "named and shamed" on Facebook.

The Accommodation Shop wrote: "All details have been passed to Kent Police. We have been inundated with messages, calls and emails so thanks everyone. Let's hope some justice can be done."
