999 crews raced to reports of a car colliding with a residential building in Long Cross in Lawrence Weston, Bristol, at around around 5am on 31 March.

As previously reported, a black BMW 1 Series left the road – careering uphill through a phone box, a garden and into block of flats.

The female driver was arrested on suspicion of drink driving and taken to custody after being checked over by paramedics on scene.
