An out of control driver crashed into a house, demolishing the wall of a front room.

The smash happened on Kilpin Hill Lane in Dewsbury , opposite the junction with Occupation Lane, shortly after 8pm yesterday evening.

A silver Volkswagen Golf was coming down Occupation Lane when the driver lost control.

Samie Holmes, who lives on Kilpin Hill Lane, saw the crash happen.

She said: "The car came straight down Occupation Lane and straight across the road.

"[The driver] Then skidded around the garden wall and into the front of the house.

"There were two people in the car, a man and a woman."

Samie said the front of the car was badly damaged and the wall was partially destroyed. Police have since boarded up the wall underneath the window.

"Everybody was fine," continued Samie. "They were just shook up.

"I can't believe it's happened so close to Christmas. I really feel for the person who lives there."

A spokesperson for the West Yorkshire Police said: "Police were called at 8.18pm to reports of a car in collision with a house.

"The car was a silver Volkswagen Golf.

"No-one injured."

Police said no arrests have been made.
