Three men have been arrested on suspicion of being drive-by egg throwers today.
Pedestrians were pelted in Maidstone in the early hours of the morning from the window of a passing car.
One 33-year-old male victim reported eggs being thrown from a vehicle driving along Rocky Hill.
The egg hit the victim’s jacket causing a mess but no injury.
Town Centre CCTV picked up a vehicle matching the man's description and tracked it until police could safely stop it.
An empty egg box was found inside.
A 19-year-old man and two other 20-year-old men were arrested and bailed.
Anyone with information should contact police in Maidstone on 01622 604 170 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
