Investigations are now underway after a driver was killed in a serious crash which closed a busy route in both directions.

The black vehicle was travelling on the coastbound carriageway of the A2 in the early ours of this morning when it collided with a central barrier and a bridge parapet.

Also in today’s podcast, a police sergeant who stripped naked and masturbated near a play park in Chatham has been sacked.

The 51-year-old admitted taking pictures of himself performing the indecent act after he “crawled” into a wooded area.

A violent thug who punched his mum and ex-girlfriend has admitted his behaviour was “disgraceful”.

The unemployed 24-year-old was drunk at the time of the attack in Dover and when he woke up in a police cell claimed he could not remember what he had done.

A Dartford man who thought he just need a bit of a rest has had his arms and legs amputated and part of his nose has been eaten away after he developed sepsis.

The father of three took a few days off work and could never could have imagined that four months later he would have lost all his limbs and be waiting for surgery to rebuild his face.

And you can hear from residents who have welcomed the proposed overhaul of a leisure centre – but say while upgrades are needed it will be a shame to see the loss of the “fun bits”.

The renovation of Tides Leisure Centre in Deal comes with lots of new inclusions, but would also mean the loss of the existing wave pool, flume, smaller slides and sauna room.
