As it passes the CCTV camera, it can be heard to crash into one car, scrape across another before coming to rest after hitting a Mini.

The driver then reversed to extract itself and carried on down the street.

A spokeswoman for Northants Police said: “We received a report of a road traffic collision in Griffiths Street, Rushden at about 1.30am on Saturday, February 8.

"The caller reported that the driver of a car – possibly light blue – had collided with a parked car and driven off without stopping. No further action was taken due to the limited information available.”
