Images have been issued of two men who may have important information in connection with a violent assault in Maidstone.

A 17-year-old boy suffered serious facial injuries as a result of the assault, which took place while he was attending a funfair at Mote Park.

The incident happened at around 6.15pm on Friday 11 June 2021, as the victim was walking to meet some friends. It is alleged he was punched in the face during an unprovoked assault.

The victim was taken to hospital and suffered significant injuries requiring surgery.
