A shop has been demolished after a police car ploughed into a building.

Two marked police vehicles have been recovered from the scene of the crash, which has left residents perplexed as to how it happened.

The A650, Keighley Road, Frizinghall, Bradford, West Yorkshire, is currently closed in both directions.

A father and son-owned business called Ideal Bathrooms & Tiles appears to have sustained the most damage from the collision, which happened at around 3am this morning.

"It is just a shock for me and my dad," said business owner Abdul Riaz.

"We don't know how to react, especially because it was in the early hours of the morning. We were woken up by this unexpected news."

He added: "I got a call from my landlord at 3.39am. I woke up 45 minutes later and rang him back.

"We are planning to go down in the next hour or so and speak to someone. We have had the shop since September/October 2021.

"I don't expect there to be damage all the way to the back of the room.

A spokesperson for West Yorkshire Police said: 'This is being treated as a damage-only collision.'

"We had items on display and the material is fairly expensive. It could cost us up to £1,000, I doubt it would be more than that.”

A spokesperson for West Yorkshire Police said: "Police are currently at the scene of a road traffic collision on Keighley Road involving two police vehicles.

"The collision has caused damage to a building, the road remains closed whilst the building is made safe. This is being treated as a damage-only collision.”
