Officers, who were responding to complaints about bad parking in the Spital Hill area, said the driver returned while they were issuing him a ticket and asked them to go easy on him as he claimed he’d ‘just been to buy some food’.

“This was just one of a number of badly parked vehicles that were issued tickets to try and send a clear message out to those who are abandoning their cars in the road!” they added.

“Which vehicle will win our next award?”
