A man has been arrested after "inappropriate behaviour" was reported towards four teenage girls in Kent.

At about 15:00 BST on 25 July, two 16-year-old girls were approached by a man in Whatman Park who allegedly asked the teenagers to take explicit images of him, Kent Police said.

The force added that about two hours later two other girls were reportedly targeted with a similar request in St Peter's Street.

Kent Police said a local man in his 50s was arrested on Friday on suspicion of a public order offence.
