CCTV images have been issued by officers investigating unprovoked assaults which left one man suffering "significant" injuries.
The attack took place on Saturday, March 27 as the victims – two men – were walking their dog in Court Road, Walmer, near Deal.
It happened between 8.30pm and 9pm after the men challenged a group of people who appeared to be breaking into a cricket club.
