Officers forced entry into a flat, finding a man in a critical condition, prompting the landing of the emergency medical helicopter near Sea Scrub Sauna and Folkestone Harbour Arm at around 4.40pm.
The dramatic air ambulance arrival highlighted the severity of the situation, with paramedics rushing to provide specialist care to the injured male. The helicopter departed shortly after the patient was stabilised.
Marine Terrace was blocked off between Marine Parade and Road of Remembrance as officers secured the scene during their investigation. The road reopened by 7pm once the incident was resolved.
Police and paramedics worked together in the incident, although details regarding the cause of the man’s serious condition have not been released. Emergency services have been approached for further information.
