Man arrested after Gravesend stabbing

Cordons remain in place in Augustine Road as detectives appeal for witnesses

A murder investigation has been launched into the death of a man who was stabbed in Gravesend.

Officers were called just after 22:15 BST on Tuesday following reports of a disturbance involving a group of men and women outside a property on Augustine Road.

The group had dispersed before their arrival, but a man in his 30s later died at a nearby hospital with "injuries consistent with stab wounds", Kent Police said.

On Wednesday, a 33-year-old man from the area was arrested.

Cordons remain in place in Augustine Road and detectives are appealing to any witnesses who have not yet spoken to them to get in touch.

Residents with private CCTV and motorists with dashcams are also asked to check for any relevant footage.
