Kent Police can confirm that officers searched three homes, a business, a boxing and judo club and a beach hut in towns along the East Kent coast on Thursday 9 November as part of its continuing investigation into the Tonbridge Securitas robbery.

Officers conducted six simultaneous early morning raids on homes in Whitstable, Herne Bay and Ramsgate, a business in Swalecliffe, a boxing and judo club in Herne Bay and a beach hut in Tankerton.

During the raids at the houses in Whitstable and Ramsgate officers arrested a 26-year-old Ramsgate man and a 46-year-old Whitstable man on suspicion of conspiring to commit robbery.
