Picture captures scene where car ploughed into house in Portsmouth

The image shows the vehicle resting against the wall of a terraced house in Queen’s Road, Fratton, as stunned residents look on in disbelief - including a lady at the door of the property that has been hit.

A car is understood to have been travelling down the road before hitting a parked car which was catapulted into the house around 12.30pm on Friday.

Residents were seen in the road after the crash before the road was cleared. No one was hurt.

A police spokesperson said: “We received a report of a collision between an unknown car which did not stop at the scene and a parked car on Queen’s Road at 12.40pm on 31 January. No injuries were sustained.”
