Driver tears off car park roof in blunder and needs CRANE to have it removed
He explained: "Usually that roof is sat up on pillars, and as he has gone to drive through he has made a bad judgement error - and at some speed I can imagine - and taken it off.
"I am surprised it hasn't happened sooner because when I went outside to see what had happened, I saw that one of the pillars which were in the ground was soaking wet and looked rotten.”The local resident continued: “The AA also turned up but they have both gone now. "The van has been moved and cordoned off, but it is blocking some spaces for other properties. It looks like it will be there for a while now.
"I spoke to the driver, he says they are trying to get hold of the car park owners to see if they can pull the roof off of the van, because obviously if they do that it will smash into pieces." He added: "The driver informed me that the van is a rental, and said the insurance refused to help, the rental company refused to help, the firefighters said they didn't know what to do and he'd have to potentially pay privately for a crane, and AA then arrived as and they were baffled on what to do or how to help."They said: "Middlemore crew attended the incident from 11.15am – 12.21pm.
