Police are hunting for three women who made off with a large quantity of clothes from a store.
The trio fled a shop in Strood Retail Park, drove off in a Vauxhall Corsa and hit several other cars on the way out.
Officers investigating the incident, which happened on Saturday, May 23, are now appealing for witnesses to come forward.
The incident happened between 11.50am and 12.01pm at the park in Commercial Road.
The total value of the goods stolen is believed to be between £450 to £650 but the name of the store has not been revealed.
Witnesses reported seeing three women in a store who later left with full bags.
Before staff could stop the women to speak with them, they left and got in a silver or green coloured Corsa with an index plate starting LV51.
A spokesman for Medway Police said: “It is believed that the Corsa may have collided with a number of cars in the car park upon trying to exit the retail park.
The women are described as between 25 and 35 years old, black, approximately 5ft 3in to 5ft 5in and of a large build. One of the women was wearing cropped trousers, a white top and a brown flat cap, the other two were wearing jeans.
Anyone who witnessed the incident or has any information, is urged to call 01634 792521 or CrimeStoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
