A shop owner has spoken of his disbelief after a car obliterated his building - for the second time in just four months.
Emergency services raced to the scene of the major crash on Canterbury Street in Ashton-under-Lyne at around 6.45pm on Thursday (January 5). A BMW had smashed straight into the Alan Fish LTD electricals store, causing the already damaged building to completely crumble.
A woman who managed to free herself from the car before fire crews and police arrived at the scene was checked over by paramedics. Greater Manchester Police later confirmed a woman had been arrested on suspicion of drink driving and was taken into custody.
