A driver crashed into cars in a Swindon street before fleeing the area on foot.

Wiltshire Police were called to reports of a road traffic collision in Kent Road, Old town, shortly before midnight yesterday (Saturday, 12 August).

Officers arrived on scene to find a white car partially overturned after it impacted a number of parked vehicles.

However, there was no sign of the driver – who reportedly fled the scene on foot.

A force spokesperson confirmed that the driver “left the scene without reporting the collision” and said that “enquiries are ongoing to locate the driver”.

The vehicle involved was recovered and nobody is believed to have been injured.

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 quoting log 407 of 12 August.
