We’d like to say a big thank you to those living in Cudworth, Barnsley, who helped to clear up their community following a five car collision earlier this month.

On Sunday 20 August, at around 10pm, a Volkswagen Golf was involved in a collision in Barnsley Road, which resulted in four parked cars being damaged.

Residents of the community quickly called police who were soon on the scene to assist.

PC Angie Jenkinson who attended the incident, said: “People were great, they quickly helped us move the damaged cars off the road and began to sweep the street of debris caused by the collision.

“I think we were all touched that they just decided to help, without ever being asked, and were so willing and eager to do so.

“Thanks to them, the road was cleared quickly and other traffic was free to drive down the street soon after. I’d like to say a big thank you to everyone who helped, you all showed the true community spirit of Barnsley!”

Thankfully, no one was injured in the collision. The driver of the car, a 19-year-old man, has been reported on summons for failing to stop at the scene of a collision.
