Kent Police are appealing for witnesses after a teenage boy was seriously injured in a road traffic collision in Sittingbourne last night (Wednesday 25th october). 

The collision happened at the junction of Newman Drive and Puttney Drive and was between a silver Vauxhall Astra and the teenage pedestrian at around 5.25pm.

The boy sustained injuries to his head and shoulder and was air lifted to a London hospital, where he remains in a serious but stable condition.

Two men have been charged in connection with an attempted burglary at a Sittingbourne newsagent over the Christmas holiday period.

Kent Police were called at 1.15am on Monday 30th December after an alarm was triggered at Lakeside News in Todd Crescent, Church Milton. Allegedly two men were seen attempting to gain entry to the rear of the store. Patrols attended within minutes of taking the call and arrested two men. A search of the shop revealed damage to the alarm system but no entry had been gained.
