Detectives in Tonbridge are appealing for information after a young man was robbed by three men in an alleyway.

On Sunday, November 18 an 18-year-old man reported that he was robbed in the alleyway off Sussex Road in Tonbridge between 7.30pm and 7.55pm.

He was taking a shortcut to a friend’s house when he was approached by three men.

They are all described as being white, aged between 22 to 27 years old, 6ft tall, and were all wearing grey tracksuits.
