Appeal after car crashes into house before pair flee

Officers are appealing for information after a car crashed into a house near Gloucester earlier this month.

Police were called to Field View Lane in Witcombe during the early hours of Wednesday 8 December after it was reported that a black Mercedes C250 had lost control before crashing into the property.

This caused damage to the front of two adjoining houses and resulted in the families needing to stay elsewhere whilst the damage was repaired.

It was later established that the driver and passenger of the car had ran away from the vehicle and enquiries are ongoing to identify them.

Investigating officers are asking anyone with information or knows who the occupants of the car may have been to get in contact.
