Horrific footage out of Doncaster this week shows a man being rammed through a wall on his own property after attempting to stop a car thief driving away in his vehicle.

It seems the man had left the car running in order to warm it up and clear condensation on a freezing cold morning, which you’d think is something you are able to do without some rat turning up to steal your car. Unfortunately, this opportunistic thief seized the moment:

Ouch. I really hope that man is OK although it does look like he was operating on pure adrenalin, with a possibly broken arm and broken ribs as he legged it back to the house. Which is just as well considering he could have easily been killed.

I don’t even think he’ll be able to claim insurance because he left the keys in the car, which is another real bummer for him. Let’s hope the thief gets caught and has the book thrown at him because he could have killed this guy who was just trying go to work in the morning like the rest of us who don’t hang around looking for cars to steal at 7am. Get well soon, whoever you are.
