Detectives have launched a CCTV appeal and are calling on the public to come forward with information following a violent attempted robbery in Gravesend that left a man with serious leg injuries.
The incident occurred around 4:20pm on Sunday, 16 March, when the victim, who was riding a red Honda motorcycle, was repeatedly kicked by two men on an electric bike as he travelled through Rochester Road into Old Road East.
The ordeal escalated when the victim crashed into metal railings on Parrock Road, at which point the suspects allegedly assaulted him again and attempted to steal the motorcycle. The suspects fled the scene empty-handed on their electric bike, which resembles a motorcycle.
Emergency services attended, and the injured man was taken to hospital for treatment to serious leg injuries.
