Two teenagers in a stolen car repeatedly rammed a house, causing the front window to collapse.
Merseyside Police has launched an investigation after a car was deliberately driven into the front of a house in Old Swan. Officers were called to a house on Raynham Road at around 6.45pm on Saturday, November 12 after receiving reports a white Peugeot 3008 had been repeatedly reversed into the property.
The front wall under the window collapsed during the incident. There were occupants in the house at the time but no one is understood to have been injured.

The car, which is believed to have been on false plates and stolen in a burglary, was left at the scene and is being forensically examined by police. Two teenage males, both wearing dark clothing with their faces covered, fled the scene and got into the rear of a dark coloured car parked nearby. The car drove off in the direction of Gidlow Road South.
An investigation is underway and CCTV, forensic and house-to-house enquiries are being carried out in the local area.
Detective Inspector Dave Jones said: “This was a shocking incident which clearly could have had more serious consequences. Thankfully nobody was injured but the occupants were left shaken by the incident.
“We are appealing for anyone who was in the area of Raynham Road who saw the white Peugeot, or captured its movements on either dashcam or Ring doorbell footage to contact us. The occupants of the car, who are believed to be teenage males, were seen to leave the area in a second dark coloured car which left in the direction of Gidlow Road South. Did you see the car in the area or who was driving it? Please let us know.
“Any piece of information could be vital to our investigation.”
