Footage of a fight between a woman and children outside KFC and McDonald’s has appeared online.

During the incident at the top of Week Street, Maidstone, close to Brenchley Gardens, a woman in a pink tank top picks up the bike and begins to lift it over her shoulders before a boy dressed in black grabs it from her.

A fight then breaks out. The incident happened outside KFC at around 6.20pm on Tuesday.
