After the car failed to move, the member of the public attempted to drive around it, at which point the Micra drove forward at speed and is suspected to have deliberately driven into the member of the public’s car.

Although the offending vehicle initially pulled into a nearby bus stop, no details were provided by the driver who subsequently drove off in the direction of Eastfield.

The member of the public later reported the incident to police.

A number of enquiries have already been undertaken in relation to this report, however the driver has yet to be identified.
