Armed police have swarmed upon a residential road in West Kingsdown, after an assault there yesterday (July 5).

Kent Police were called to Hever Avenue at 8am to reports of a disturbance, and arrested a 63-year-old man on suspicion of GBH.

South East Coast Ambulance Service were also called to the 'private address' - and an air ambulance landed nearby.

A 21-year-old man was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries, and is also under arrest.

The 63-year-old was later released on bail until Monday, July 27.

The men are believed to have known each other - and police are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.
