The car – a black Seat Toledo – was taken from Mont Grantez, St. Ouen, overnight between Saturday and Sunday.

The illegal driver then crashed the call into a wall, and failed to report that collision.

The car was then found parked along La Rue du Val de la Mare the following morning around 09:00.
