The 65-year–old owner of a bed and breakfast in High Halden is recovering after being doused with CS spray by two robbers.
They raided the business on Thursday March 4 at 9.15pm. During the attack they also sprayed a paying guest who was staying at the B&B and a dog.
After demanding cash from the owner the men stole a laptop computer and left the building.
Other than the effects of the spray, no one was injured.
The two men are described as white, in their early 20s, 6ft 2in tall, slim build and were wearing dark clothing.
DI Steve Bridges said: “This appears to be an isolated incident which we are treating very seriously and encourage anyone with information to contact the Area Major Inquiry Team on 01622 690690.”
