Can you help us find a large cast bronze hippopotamus stolen from a garden ornament business near #TunbridgeWells ? Weighing almost three quarters of a tonne and at around two metres in length, the hippo was taken from a site in Langton Green.

Quite possibly the most inconsiderate parking we've seen. Not only blocking the pavement but obstructing the pedestrian crossing. No chance a pram or wheelchair could pass on the path & obstructing the view for anyone attempting to cross the road. Driver located & reported NL

Having bought their new vehicle 30mins before being stopped by the team in #Snodland . The driver didn't think getting insurance, tax, It's lack of any MOT or their requirement to hold a full driving licence was an issue. TOR issued & the vehicle seized. NL cad 24:1201
