A teenager was reportedly hit with a metal bar before three robbers stole his gold iPhone 6s and a gold ring.
The 18-year-old victim told police he was walking in Sycamore Drive, Swanley, in the early hours of this morning when he was attacked.
Two suspects have been arrested but police are still searching for a third man.
The robbery is said to have happened between 2.10am and 2.30am.
The teenager said he was walking along the road when he saw three men in a blue Peugeot 206.
Two of the men are alleged to have left the vehicle and approached the victim.
The men are reported to have asked the victim why he was there before one of the men hit him across his legs with a metal bar.
The men then reportedly stole the victim’s gold iPhone 6s as well as a gold ring.
The trio then got back into their vehicle and drove off towards Asda, the victim said.
A passing police patrol saw the victim and subsequently searched for the vehicle, which was found a short time later in Heath Close, Swanley.
A 25-year-old man was arrested nearby on suspicion of robbery.
A second man, aged 21, has also been arrested on suspicion of robbery. Both men remain in custody at this time.
