Heart-stopping moment car crashes into busy Boots store as terrified Christmas shoppers are forced to dive for cover

A car crashed into a busy boots store in Liverpool causing Christmas shoppers to dive for cover amid shattered glass and debris.

CCTV footage captured the moment the Voltswagen Tiguan smashed into the store at the Edge Lane retail park, pushing aside another vehicle and knocking over a metal bollard.

The impact of the crash sent shards of glass flying across the shop as customers took cover behind shelves, including one woman pushing a pram.

A recovery vehicle then arrived to remove the car from the store, the Mirror reported.

The vehicle had collided with three other cars before driving through the shop doors.
