Appeal after £8,000 ring stolen

Sorry, this video asset has been removed.

These CCTV images have been released after an 85-year-old woman
was badly injured during a ring raid.

Police are renewing their appeal a month after the ring worth

A man is said to have entered the jewellery store at around
10.45am on July 9, and taken a ring worth £7,900.

But, as he left the store, the culprit allegedly pulled the
elderly woman to the floor - leaving her with a suspected broken
hip, which needed surgery.

Detective Constable Claire Beckett from Kent Police said: “It’s
a month on after this crime occurred and we are still keen to hear
from any possible witnesses or those who may have been offered this
ring for sale.

"A completely innocent bystander was seriously injured during
this

incident and we are very keen to speak to any witnesses or anyone
who has any information.

"The man pictured might have important information in relation
to the case and I would urge him to get in touch.”

Anyone with information can contact Kent Police by calling 101,
and quoting crime reference YY/12253/12. Alternatively, contact
