Two young men have been charged with robbery in connection with an attack which left two teenagers with head injuries.

Thomas Hawkins, 19, of Frindsbury Road, Strood, has been charged and remanded in custody following an incident in Gillingham on Sunday, January 20.

A 16-year-old boy from Strood, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has also been charged and bailed until February 22.

It follows an incident at the Great Lines where two teenagers were taken to Medway Maritime Hospital with head injuries after allegedly robbed by a gang of five men.

Both will appear before magistrates in Medway at a later date.
