Car smashes into City branch of Pret a Manger
City workers in the Fenchurch Street area seeking their morning coffee and croissant fix will have a little further to go today.
Police are investigating after a car smashed through the front of the Pret a Manger branch in Cullum Street last night, putting the store out of action. A Pret spokesperson said the company is helping the police with their investigation.
City of London Police said they were called at 1.25am to reports of a car that had driven into the shop front of Pret a Manger on Cullum Street, but said no arrests had been made.
