A car smashed into the front of a property in Stockton in the early hours of the morning.

The incident happened just before 5am and saw a silver Ford Focus leave the road and crash into a nearby property.

Recent images show the car still remains at the scene, with the front of the house seemingly kept stable by the car's bonnet.

Damage to the property is substantial and the car has also been left damaged by the incident.

Pictures show the bay window of the property sitting on top of the silver car as smashed glass and brick lay strewn across the ground.
