FARNINGHAM, HORTON KIRBY & SOUTH DARENTH
In Horton Kirby we had a large disturbance with approximatly 200+ youths attending a party which got out of hand, this led to teenagers congreating in the street letting off fire extinguishers, throwing glass bottles at police vehicles and then jumping on the roof of Farningham train station and throwing concrete blocks towards police vehicles. This was attended by several police officers from all over the division aswell as British Transport Police, a large majority of the teenagers were contained in a space at the train station where they were either to get on a train or were to be picked up by their parents at our meeting point where they were informed about what the youths had been up too. CCTV was collected by officers and investigations on going to identify these involved, however we are aware that many of them came from Crayford, Dartford and Maidstone. Please encourage young people not to advertise having parties on social media.
