TWO INJURED AFTER LEOTARD LANDS ON CAR
A leotard which landed on a car windscreen late on Sunday evening has left a young couple in hospital.
David Primmett, 32, and his 29-year-old wife Caroline were admitted to Froghill General around 10pm. The couple, who were married in St Mark’s last January, were reported to be suffering from shock and currant wounds.
A spokesman for Froghill Constabulary said the leopard-skin garment came from a window on the eighth floor of a block of flats in Merribank Road. It floated down though the air, finally landing on the windscreen of the Primmett’s car, which was passing on the street below.
The car, a yellow Vauxhall Astra, careened off the road before crashing through the window of the Loaf-U-Like bakery. It then ploughed into a large stack of currant boxes, several of which burst on impact.
Police investigations later revealed that the skimpy lycra garment had been thrown out of the window during the course of an argument.
Brian Mardell, 28, of Primrose Court, Merribank Road, was taken into police custody on Tuesday in connection with the case.
Investigating officer DS Geoff Bunton told the Observer : “I can confirm that a man is helping us with our enquiries.
"It seems he acted out of jealousy after his wife was seen in the Weeping Willow Tearooms having spotted dick with her aerobics instructor.”
