Arrests have been made in connection with two burglaries at Priestfield stadium.
Separate break-ins were reported at the home of Gillingham Football Club overnight between December 17-18 and January 6-7.
During the latest break-in a safe was reported stolen.
At around 7.30pm yesterday officers arrested two 37-year-old men, both from Gillingham, on suspicion of burglary. They are currently in custody.
As part of the investigation a property in Gordon Road, Gillingham, was searched and the safe was recovered and returned to the club.
On the same day a 39-year-old man, also from Gillingham, was arrested in connection with the December burglary.
During this incident a lawn mower, jet washer and alcohol were reported stolen.
The man arrested for the first burglary has since been bailed until February 1 pending further enquiries.
Officers are continuing to carry out enquiries into both incidents and investigating if the incidents are linked. Enquires are ongoing.
