Detectives are appealing for information after a Kent Police officer was struck by a motorcycle on the M25 near Swanley.
At around 3pm on Sunday 23 January 2022, patrols and the police helicopter responded to reports a suspected stolen motorcycle was being ridden dangerously in north Kent.
The black and orange KTM Duke motorbike is alleged to have later joined the M25 near Dartford where it travelled the wrong way along the clockwise carriageway towards Swanley.

It then returned along the anti-clockwise carriageway, again travelling against the flow of traffic. At around 4.05pm near Junction 3, the motorcycle collided with a roads policing constable who was out of his vehicle.
The officer suffered serious injuries and was taken to a London hospital where he remains in a stable condition.
A 26-year-old man was arrested later the same day in Dartford on suspicion of offences including dangerous driving and assault.
Patrols also detained an 18-year-old man in Greenhithe on suspicion of theft. Both suspects were taken into custody.
