It is alleged two men approached a man in his 60s and distracted him while they stole "a quantity of cash" from his parked car.

They are both seen wearing masks.

Investigating officer PC Joshua Littley said: “We have been making enquiries in the area, including the examination of CCTV footage and are now able to release these images.

“While the men are wearing face masks which hide their features, one of them has shorts and distinctive red trainers and it is hoped somebody recognises one or both of them and calls the appeal line.”

Anybody with information that may assist the investigation is urged to call Kent Police on 01622 604100, quoting crime reference number 46/185206/21.
