A smashed-up car was left in the middle of a roundabout in Cheshire for days following a crash. The vehicle, which is believed to be a Ford Fiesta, is thought to have been involved in a collision on the A534 near Wheelock towards the beginning of last week.
Officers from Cheshire Constabulary were not called to a collision but were contacted by the vehicle owner at around 8.30am on Tuesday March 8. They told police that the car would be recovered from the busy roundabout.
Pictures from the scene showed the wreck the car was left in, with the front of the vehicle completely destroyed. Various pieces of debris were seen strewn across the grass of the roundabout and police tape had been put up around it.
