A silver Toyota car that allegedly followed two men and a woman to three different locations is at the centre of a police appeal.

Officers are investigating a report of a series of incidents that happened between 11am and 11.30am on Sunday, October 30.

Two men and a woman, who was pushing a pram, were crossing Cornwallis Road in Folkestone when there was an "altercation" with the woman driver of the car.

She is described as white, tanned, 5ft 2, of large build with dark hair in a bob above her shoulders.

The trio continued to walk along Cheriton Road to the zebra crossing outside Folkestone Central railway station where it's reported the same car, now driven by a man, pulled up alongside them.

The woman driver was now sitting in the back and there was a teenage boy in the front passenger seat.
