Thanks for asking, not sure how well my niece slept last night but we spoke to them late in the evening and the police had been and requested forensics to come too. Once they had left, the door had to be sorted out - thats the other part to it, the hassle that it has caused.
Police didn't seem all that interested in the car being on the drive and didn't seem to outwardly link the crime and the car. Perhaps there's been a spate in the area with other intentions in mind. ???
