The dark blue Renault Clio has now become a target for vandals after the crash on Sunday which saw the vehicle smash into a wall on Thorne Road, near Christ Church Road and opposite Hall Cross School.

It is thought the vehicle may have been stolen and abandoned by joy-riders following the incident.

"The car has been badly vandalised, but personal belongings are still inside.

"It blocks the pavement, is a danger to the public and all of us who live nearby are concerned that it will be torched in the very near future, and that poses a very grave danger to anyone nearby.

"Nothing at all has been done by the police to secure the incident. How and why - and to who does it belong?"
