Two Men Assaulted in Sittingbourne Carpark: Police Seek Witnesses
Police are hunting for witnesses after two men were attacked in a carpark near Sittingbourne High Street.
Victims Followed Then Pummeled
Just before 8pm on Monday, 4 November 2019, the pair were walking along the High Street when a group of youths started following them. The chase continued through St Michael’s Church churchyard and into the nearby carpark on St Michael’s Road.
There, both victims were punched to the ground and badly assaulted as they tried to defend themselves.
Youths Also Tossed Stones at Local Shop
The same gang reportedly hurled stones at a shop on the High Street at around the same time.
