A man has been arrested after a vehicle collided with cars.

Police were alerted to a suspicious Fiat Ducato van at 7.42pm on Friday, May 25, in Rabbits Road, South Darenth.

The van drove away from the patrol and was subsequently found in Main Road, Longfield, where it had reportedly struck three vehicles and come to a halt.

A 22-year-old man from Orpington, who was found nearby, was arrested on suspicion of going equipped to steal, dangerous driving, failing to stop after a collision and no insurance.

Bolt croppers and a hammer were seized from inside the vehicle.

The man was subsequently released under investigation and enquiries are ongoing to identify two other men who were said to be inside the van.
