A driver who fled the scene of a crash was attacked by a group of emus after climbing into their field.

A truck hit a shop in the centre of Malmesbury in Wiltshire at lunchtime on Monday.

Chef Dean Wade gave chase when two people left the truck and escaped on foot. Mr Wade says he then saw the driver being attacked by a group of emus after he climbed into their field.

Wiltshire Police said the driver of the pick-up truck had been arrested on suspicion of failing to stop, dangerous driving and causing actual bodily harm.

He remains in custody and the passenger, who was also arrested, has been released.

The impact of the vehicle destroyed the shop-front, but fortunately the building was empty.

Oh for god's sake. Some people must have had their sense of humour surgically removed.

To suggest that something's 'offensive to children' is pretty ridiculous as well. Parents might find rude words offensive, children just think they're funny.
 
If I was in charge those people who complained would be rounded up and killed by firing squad. We havn't got room for people like that.
