The scene at Longport Roundabout
On Monday at 3pm three police cars and an ambulance were summoned to attend to a 40-year-old man, who after collapsing was bustled into an ambulance on a stretcher.  The man is believed to have been homeless and after taking an overdose had collapsed, while one of his friends left, the police arrived to deal with the aftermath.

At the Longport Roundabout in Canterbury, eye-witness Chloe Coleman said:
“There were three of them but then he just slumped over while one of the guys disappeared somewhere.”
