Officers investigating the theft of mopeds and cycles in the Tonbridge area have released a CCTV image of a person they wish to identify.
The appeal follows the arrest of two suspects after a reported attempt to steal a moped in a town centre car park.
Patrols saw two teenagers acting suspiciously in Vale Road on Monday 21 August 2023, and they were detained following a short foot chase. A moped that had allegedly been targeted was later returned to its owner.
The boys, aged 17 and 16, were conditionally bailed pending further investigation.
