Kent Police Appeal for Information on Aaron Benton Wanted for Breaching Court Order

Kent Police Appeal for Information on Aaron Benton Wanted for Breaching Court Order

Residents across Medway and surrounding areas are being asked to help locate Aaron Benton, who is wanted by Kent Police for breaching a court order.

Families in Medway could hold the key to finding a wanted man with local connections. Aaron Benton is being hunted by Kent Police after breaching a court order — and officers need the public’s help.

The Police Appeal

Kent Police put out the call on social media. Benton has links to Medway and London, they said. The appeal comes with a stark warning for anyone who spots him.

Don’t approach. Call 999.

Officers have given this priority status. Reference number 46/55494/26. The 46 prefix marks it as a Medway area case — part of the system Kent Police use to track investigations countywide.

What Court Order Breaches Mean

Breaking a court order means ignoring what a judge told you to do. Simple as that.

These orders cover everything from bail conditions — stay away from certain places or people — to restraining orders protecting harassment victims. Under the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994, breach one and you’re looking at serious criminal charges. Prison sentences can hit five years, depending on what you’ve broken.

How Residents Can Help Safely

See Aaron Benton? Don’t be a hero.

Call 999 immediately and quote reference 46/55494/26. Officers can respond quickly and — crucially — safely.

Prefer to stay anonymous? Crimestoppers takes calls on 0800 555111. Their online form works too. No names, no personal details required.

Kent Police rely heavily on social media appeals like this. Over 10,000 court order breaches get reported annually across England and Wales, Ministry of Justice figures show. Public cooperation isn’t just helpful — it’s essential.

Key Takeaways

  • Aaron Benton is wanted by Kent Police for breaching a court order and has connections to Medway and London
  • Anyone who sees him should call 999 immediately, quoting reference 46/55494/26, and should not approach him
  • Anonymous reports can be made to Crimestoppers on 0800 555111 or through their online form

What This Means for Kent Residents

Stay alert in Medway and surrounding areas. Town centres, public transport, residential streets where Benton might have connections — keep your eyes open during normal routines. But if you spot someone matching his description, remember: your safety comes first. Watch from a distance, then call police rather than getting involved directly.

This kind of community cooperation keeps Kent safe. And it ensures court orders — which often exist to protect vulnerable people — actually get enforced across our patch.
