Two men have been charged by officers investigating reports of suspicious behaviour around cash machines in Tonbridge and Paddock Wood.

Around 15 minutes later, a similar call was received, stating the same men had now been seen acting suspiciously near a bank in Station Road, Paddock Wood.

James Bull, 22 and of Leigh Terrace in Teston, and Jake Leigh, 24 and of no fixed addresss, have since been charged with one count of going equipped for theft.

They have both been bailed to attend Sevenoaks Magistrates’ Court on April 10.
