Car crashes into house
A Staplehurst couple had a lucky escape when a car crashed
into their living room as they watched TV.
Brian and Cheryl Carr from Hurst Close were uninjured in the
accident which happened at about 7.30pm on Saturday night.
The car, which was driven by a man who lives opposite the pair,
crashed through a neighbour's hedge before smashing into the side
of the detached house.
Mr Carr, 56, a van driver, said: "I haven't had time to
reflect on how lucky we were because I've been running on adrenalin
since Saturday night."
The driver of the car, a black Seat Ibiza, was also
uninjured.
Police confirmed a man in his 40s was arrested on suspicion of
drink driving.
