There was a scene of destruction in Trowbridge on Tuesday evening after a car ploughed into the front of a restaurant, smashing its windows.
The dramatic incident happened around 10pm on Tuesday (January 17) when a red Citroen C3 crashed into the front and side of the Davana Thai restaurant and takeaway in Stallard Street, Trowbridge.
The front engine of the car was smoking when police arrived and the fire service in Trowbridge was called out as a precaution.
A spokesperson for Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service said the fire crew only had to make the scene safe.
It is understood the collision set off the vehicle’s air bags. It is not known whether the driver was injured.
Police have since confirmed that a man has been arrested.
It is understood the restaurant was open at the time.
On Wednesday morning the smashed front and sides window of the Thai restaurant were boarded up for security reasons.
It is understood the building was not seriously damaged by the collision, despite two large windows being destroyed in the crash.
