A burglar smashed his way into a children's play centre last night.

A window was smashed at Adventure Kidz in Aylesford, but it is believed nothing has been stolen.

Kent Police were called to the centre on Quarry Wood Industrial Estate at 12.05am.

The centre suffered a similar break in back in February 2016. It is open to visitors today.

Owner Andrew Moody said: "Last time they stole a safe which caused us all sorts of problems.

"They always seem to do it on a Sunday night. We have our weekend trade and the money from that can be kept in a locked safe.

"They know it's an opportunity to take the money. It is frustrating, but we were better prepared this time, our alarms alerted me and the police."

Officers have attended the scene and enquiries are ongoing.

Anyone with information is asked to call the west Kent appeals line on 01622 604100, quoting reference 46/55438/19. Alternatively call Kent Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.

Elsewhere in Aylesford, a shop worker managed to fend off an armed robber with some crates of energy drink - watch the video here.
