KENT Police have renewed their appeal for information into a serious assault on a teenager in one of the county's best-known parks.

The 17-year-old victim was walking in Mote Park at Maidstone when he felt a blow to the back of his head.

He was then assaulted by a number of youths who stole his bag, keys, mobile phone, wallet and MP3 player, before making off.

The victim, from Maidstone, suffered cuts and bruises during the incident. The offenders are described as four males and a female.

One of the males is described as being in his early 20s with dark, brown hair. He was about 6ft tall and was wearing jeans.

Another is described as being about 14, 5ft 7ins in height and wearing a blue hooded top and white trainers. He had cropped brown hair. The girl involved is described as white, about 5ft 7ins tall with blonde, streaked hair.

Maidstone and Malling Police say the incident happened on January 31 at around 7.45pm as the victim was walking through the park into Claygate.

Anyone with information about this incident or anyone who recognises the person in the e-fit is asked to contact PC Patrick Holmes on 01622 608182, or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 - this call is free and confidential.
