Gresford councillor, Jeremy Kent, said: "Whilst accidents can happen it is clearly disappointing for the owner to discover their vehicle has been damaged in this way.

"I have called on council officials to ensure that this matter is resolved for the resident as swiftly as possible and will continue to support the vehicle owner through the process."
