Police are attempting to trace two men in connection with a fatal collision between a car and a pedestrian.

Kent Police were called to the incident on the A289 Gads Hill, Gillingham, at around 12.10pm on Monday.

CCTV images released by detectives show two hooded men dressed in dark clothing on a pavement on foot.

South East Coast Ambulance paramedics treated the male pedestrian at the scene but he later died, the force said.

Kent Police’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit has asked people to submit any dashcam or CCTV footage showing a grey Mercedes estate car.

“We urge anyone with relevant information regarding the incident or these men to get in touch with us.”
