A Kent Police dog helped detain two people who are suspected to have robbed a man inside a Canterbury home.
On Wednesday 6 January 2021, at around 10pm, two people are reported to have broken into a property in Military Road, threatened the occupant and demanded money.
The victim, who is in his late 60s, handed over what cash he had and the suspects, a man and a woman, left the address.
Further money was then withdrawn by using the victim’s bank card at two nearby cash machines.
Officers from the Dog Section carried out a search of the area with Police Dog Bo, who helped locate two people that matched the description of the offenders.
