Arrest after High Road petrol station crash

Posted by Chris Longhurst on Mar 24, 09 12:36 PM in Crime

AN ARREST was made after a car lost control, crossed oncoming traffic and smashed through a wall onto a petrol station forecourt.

The dramatic scenes happened at 9.15am yesterday at the Total petrol station at the junction of High Road, and Oak Avenue in Ickenham.

After careering through the wall the car only came to a halt when it crashed into a stationary car parked on the forcourt.

An ambulance was called to the scene but nobody was taken to hospital.

An eyewitness said: "I was sitting here having a cup of tea when this car lost control with its wheel hanging off.

"It then went straight through the wall onto the station, it was dramatic, when the police got there they arrested the driver straight away."

Police confirmed an arrest had been made and an investigation was ongoing.

We'd like to hear from you.
