A man’s been arrested after crashing his car in Heytesbury and fleeing the scene.

Police officers responded to reports of a road traffic collision in High Street, near the junction with Greenlands, at around 6.30am on Saturday morning (4 February).

The driver of a white car ploughed into two parked vehicles and abandoned it in the middle of the road – before fleeing the scene on foot.

A man aged in his 20s, who is believed to be the driver, was arrested on suspicion of failing to stop at the scene of a collision.

He was further arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of drink or drugs.

He was taken to Salisbury District Hospital for treatment before being transferred to Melksham custody for questioning.

He has since been released under investigation as Wiltshire Police continue to make enquiries.
