The 50-year-old driver “lost control of the vehicle” while driving ou tin Halesowen and crashed into five parked cars. The West Midlands Fire Service reported that 10 firefighters were sent to the scene. Nobody was injured.

“Two fire engines and 10 firefighters attended, from Haden Cross and Billesley fire stations. The first crew arrived five minutes after being mobilised.”
“The driver of the car had left the scene before we arrived. We made the vehicle safe and left the incident in the hands of the police at 8.45pm.”
The police search for the man after the crash and witnesses were interviewed to locate the driver. He was found at home the next day. Cullen is charged for driving without due care and failure to give details after crashing, but initially denied any wrongdoing.
While he was being taken to Birmingham Magistrates Court, he plead guilty. He was bailed by a judge. Cullen’s case has been adjourned until February 27.
