Police have made a fourth arrest after two men were tasered in the wake of a stabbing in Dartford town centre at the weekend.
Officers were initially called to Lowfield Street at around 6pm on Saturday (July 17) after a white Nissan Qashqai reportedly crashed into roadside furniture.
Two men exited the car and a fight ensued, during which one of the men suffered an injury “consistent with a stab wound.”
Officers at the scene arrested the victim of the assault on suspicion of possession with intent to supply class A drugs., a 26-year-old man from Erith, taking him to a London hospital, where he remains in a stable condition.
Multiple officers were assaulted on attendance, police said, and two of those arrested were Tasered as a result of "aggressive behaviour."
The latest arrest is of a 21-year-old man, who was detained at around 11pm last night. He remains in custody as enquiries continue.
Two other men from London, aged 39 and 26, were previously arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of class A drugs.
They have both been released on bail, pending further enquiries, until August 11 and 13 respectively.
Witnesses or anyone with information who has not yet spoken to police are urged to call the appeal line on 01474 366149 quoting reference 46/126283/21.
