Police are chasing an overweight Scotsman with ginger hair and strong body odour who raided a home in Kent.

Officers issued an e-fit on Sunday after the robber smashed his way into a man's home in Dover.

The victim, a man in his 40s, was punched in the face by the Scotsman after he answered his front door.

Police released the description of the attacker who was accompanied by another man, when he raided the home at 7.30am on May 28.

The pair stormed into the victim's home and stole cash and other valuables before fleeing.

According to police the ginger-haired man who launched the attack had a 'thick Scottish accent' and 'strong body odour'.

His accomplice is described by police as being 'skinny' and was wearing a blue fleece.

A Kent Police spokesman said: 'The victim - a man in his 40s - told police he was punched as he opened the front door of his house.

'A number of personal belongings were then reportedly stolen from within.

'The alleged attacker is described as being "chubby" and about 6ft 2in. He had strong body odour and spoke with a Scottish accent.

'He is reported to have been accompanied by a second man described as being very skinny and wearing a blue zip-up fleece.'

Neighbour Graham Harper, 34, said: 'It shouldn't be hard to track this guy down as he's pretty distinctive - he's fat, smelly and ginger and with a strong Scottish accent.

'The police should have this guy in custody in no time.'
