Officers investigating an alleged assault in Ramsgate are appealing for witnesses to come forward.
At around 3.40pm on Saturday 20 November an 18-year-old woman fell to the floor whilst running in King Street, causing injuries that required hospital treatment.
She had moments earlier left a nearby business and was being pursued by a worker who is alleged to have pulled her to the ground.
The man has been identified and spoken to, and officers are continuing to investigate what happened including a review of available CCTV footage.
No arrests have been made.

Available CCTV?
What does this mean?
Possibly that the streets of Ramsgate are unsafe?
There are dummy cameras everywhere to save money, they are to try to deter crime. Problem is once something happens in a certain place where there are cameras & the police start appealing for witness or doorbell footage etc then everybody knows the score.
Shop workers usually run after shoplifters. Is this the case in this story ?
Looks like they are after the shop worker rather than what I must presume is a shop lifter.
I could well be wrong of course, but I’d lay money on not being so.
