It involved two groups of men.

When police searched one of the suspects, who suffered a facial injury in the brawl, he was found to have a metal wrench and was arrested on suspicion of affray.

The 35-year-old, from Maidstone, was later released from custody but remains under investigation.

Others who were involved had left the area before officers arrived, including one man who was repeatedly kicked in the head and face while on the floor.

Enquiries to locate the other suspects have led to the publication of images of four men who police would like to speak to.
