Three women launched a homophobic attack on a couple in Tesco - who were so scared they had to shelter in a security guard's office.

Two women were shopping inside Tesco in Courteney Road, Gillingham, when they reported being targeted by them.

The offenders were alleged to have used homophobic language towards the victims who had to seek refuge inside a security office.

The attack happened at around 3.15pm more than two months ago on January 31 but officers have only now released CCTV images of the women they want to talk to.
