Four men have been arrested in connection with a series of burglaries across the South East, including at properties in west Kent.

Detectives have been investigating a number of break-ins, which are believed to be linked.

As many as 30 burglaries reported over the past three months could be connected, including offences recorded in Sevenoaks, Kemsing, and Tonbridge.

Yesterday, police attended Zambra Way in Seal, where they located an Audi, which had previously been reported stolen from outside a property in Tonbridge.

At around 1.45pm, three men were seen approaching the car, and were arrested on suspicion of theft and burglary offences.

A further suspect was detained in Mills Crescent, Seal, a short while later.

The suspects, a 20-year-old man from Farningham, two men aged 18 and 24 from Seal, and an 18-year-old man of no fixed abode all remain in custody.
