A 15-year-old was hit with a baseball bat and another deliberately rammed by a car, as police were called to a "large disturbance" near an Erith school.

Police attended Mill Road shortly before 4.15pm on Thursday, January 20, following multiple reports of males fighting near King Henry School, a mixed secondary and sixth form.

A group of males reportedly exited a car and chased a 15-year-old boy, who was hit with a baseball bat.

Another 15-year-old boy was left injured after a car was deliberately driven into him on Avenue Road. 

Both of their injuries have since been assessed as non-life-threatening.

Police are yet to make any arrests, as enquiries continue.

A section 35 order, applying to the DA8 postcode, has been put in place until 5pm on January 22.
