Man injured in unprovoked Gravesend assault

A CCTV image has been issued by detectives investigating a serious assault in Gravesend.

The incident happened in the Fenners Marsh area of the town at around 8.05pm on Saturday 18 June 2022.

A man in his 50s reported that he opened his front door to two men he did not know, who repeatedly punched and kicked him before walking away.

He attended a local hospital where he received treatment for numerous cuts and bruises to his face, arms and body.

Can you help?

Investigating officer Detective Constable Julia Dell of Kent Police said:

‘We believe the men in the CCTV image may be able to assist us with our enquiries into this unprovoked attack.

‘Whilst the image is slightly blurry and only one of the men’s faces can be seen, we are hopeful they may still be recognisable from their clothing and to people who know them.’
