POLICE have released an e-fit of a man they want to trace after two boys were threatened and kicked in Gravesend.

The incident happened on June 5 in Hever Court Road, at the rear of Manor Hotel.

Two teenagers, aged 13 and 14, were walking along the track between 2.10pm and 2.30pm, when they were approached by a man in his 20s.

The man demanded the boys hand over their baseball caps and threatened them with a wooden pole and kicked out at one of the boys.

Investigating officer Detective Constable Jo Fountain said: "There were other people walking along the track at the time the boys were approached.

"We are appealing for anyone who may have seen this incident, or have any information to come forward."

The man is described as white, in his early 20s, with an oval shaped face, red around his eyes with a scar under his left jaw area.

He is around 6ft, of a slim frame and was wearing a grey tracksuit with Airmax black trainers.
