CCTV images have been released as police continue to hunt for a number of people involved in a mass brawl involving armed men wearing facemasks and balaclavas.
The photos have been issued as part of the investigation into violent disturbances in and around the New Ash Green area, which left a teenager suffering multiple injuries.
Officers are continuing to appeal for information following the series of linked incidents last month.
Police were initially called at 3.50pm on Wednesday, December 30 to reports of fighting involving a large number of people at a car park and rugby playing field off Punch Croft. Those involved were said to have been carrying weapons including baseball bats.
The occupants of two cars, who are alleged to have been there, are then believed to have been involved in a separate incident a short distance away in Hartley.
An 18-year-old man was assaulted at the junction of Church Road and Gorsewood Road and was taken by ambulance to a London hospital with serious leg injuries.
A media appeal was issued shortly afterwards and since then three men, aged 19, and a 14-year-old boy, have been arrested in connection with assault and public order offences.
Detectives are now renewing the appeal with images of a further four people, who they believe may have important information.
Anyone who recognises them is urged to contact police on 01622 604100, quoting 46/228823/20. You can also contact Kent Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111 or by using the online form.
