A man is said to have been seriously injured in a stabbing at a kebab shop in Ramsgate.

Emergency crews were called to the M&M Kebab and Pizza takeaway in King Street in the early hours of this morning.

The shop in the town centre remains taped off this morning while police investigate what happened.

Shocked onlookers are said to have taken refuge in a nearby taxi office after the assault spilt out into the street.

The violence reportedly started near the harbour and continued up into the town centre.

It is not yet known how many people have been injured.

Smashed glass and a large lump of wood can be seen at the crime scene, with uneaten food left on the tables.

Police and the ambulance service have been approached for more information.
