A man is appearing in court today, charged with assaulting a female Police Community Support Officer (PCSO).
Derek William Phillips, of no fixed address, also faces a charge of breaching his Criminal Behaviour Order (CBO).
The 56-year-old was arrested in Whitstable on Friday afternoon.
He was charged with breaching his CBO by being drunk in a public place, which he was prohibited from doing by the order made by North Kent Magistrates in November 2016.
Later that day, he was also charged with assaulting a female PCSO in Brices Alley.
Details of the assault are unknown.
Phillips is due to appear before Medway magistrates' court today.
