Police are continuing to investigate reports that a tractor drove through the middle of tightly parked cars and caused significant damage to several vehicles.

Shocked bystanders watched on as the tractor drove through the cars which were parked on a road at Seathwaite, in the Borrowdale valley, on Sunday.

The tractor was believed to be carrying a trailer full of sheep.

It left one car in particular with significant damage to its driver's side.

Officers were called about the incident and received reports of four cars being damaged between 9am and 12pm.

In an update today, a police spokesman said: "Enquiries are ongoing and no arrests have been made at this time."

An eyewitness who saw the tractor drive through left a note on the car to explain to the owner what he had saw.

In it, he wrote: "The big tractor carrying a huge sheep trailer left the farm at the end of the road. "I then saw him stop along the road.

"He couldn't get through the gap and couldn't turn around. So... he just went through damaging at least four cars, yours coming of worst."

Police ask anyone with information to make contact via 101, quoting log number 156 of November 12.
