Police appeal after car runs into Sleaford MP’s office then drives off
Lincolnshire Police officers say the incident happened in the afternoon at about 4.30pm, when the possibly silver-coloured estate car, believed to be a woman, with a young girl passenger, was seen to have reversed into the bay window of Dr Caroline Johnson’s consitituency office in White Hart Mews, off Southgate.
A spokesman said: “The vehicle has caused extensive damage to the property and is highly likely to have heavy damage to the rear of the vehicle.
“The vehicle then left the scene.”

“It has done quite a lot of damage and quite a few pieces of car were left behind.
“It has split the window frame and cracked the brickwork both sides of the window, pushing the wall in slightly.”
She said police were seeking CCTV footage from neighbouring businesses.
