A car careered off the road and ploughed into the front of an elderly couple's bungalow.

The saloon vehicle smashed into the house in Norwood Avenue, in Alloa, Clackmannanshire, at around 10.25am on Thursday.

It had crashed through a wall and ended up colliding with the front of the bungalow.

Central Scotland Fire Service said there was initial concern over the safety of the elderly couple living in the property, but they were not injured in the incident, while the couple in the car at the time were also uninjured but were left "badly shaken".

Central Scotland Police confirmed that no other vehicles were involved in the collision while The Scottish Ambulance Service attended the incident as well, but no one in the house or car required any hospital treatment.

Firefighters were also called out to assess the damage caused to the house and to try to make it safe for those living there.

After shoring up the damage done to the front of the house, the car was removed from the property by firefighters at around 11.45am.
