Mobile police station set up in Swanley following fatal A20 crash

Kent Police have set up a mobile police station in Swanley to encourage witnesses of a fatal road crash on the A20 to come forward.

Detectives are visiting the St Mary's estate, where they hope local people will provide more information about the incident in which Michael Baker died.

The 47-year-old, from Littlehampton, West Sussex, was travelling in a recovery truck, when it collided with a lorry at around 11am last Saturday (July 24).

Police are investigating reports that children were seen throwing stones at traffic shortly before the crash.

The lorry was on the side of the road after its driver saw something hit the windscreen of his vehicle and pulled over.

Four people aged between 10 and 15-years-old have been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter. They have all been released on bail while inquiries continue.
