A man has been charged after allegedly trying to mow down two people in Dartford.

Charlie Aristide, of Farnan Road in Streatham, will appear at Woolwich Crown Court on Monday, November 20, charged with two counts of attempting to cause grievous bodily harm, criminal damage, dangerous driving and driving while unfit through drugs.

It follows a crash at 3.20pm in Farnol Road, Temple Hill.

The 31-year-old appeared at Medway Magistrates’ Court this morning where he was remanded in custody.

No injuries were reported as a result of this incident but the vehicle remained wedged over two knocked down bollards for much of the evening.
