Hythe incident update

You may have seen posts about a serious assault in Hythe that was posted through social media (Kent Online).

I feel it is important to let you know that, following enquiries, a number of adult suspects have now been arrested in connection with the incident.

I understand incidents like this can cause concern, but Hythe remains a safe place and this appears to be an isolated matter. Officers are continuing to carry out enquiries to fully understand what happened and bring suspects to justice.

Thank you to those who have already come forward with information — if you know anything that could help, please do get in touch.

Regards
