A car rolled over an 89 year old man’s foot in an accident in a car park area in Largs last Wednesday morning.
Thankfully, the OAP received no injuries as a result of the incident which happened at 11.20 due to a vehicle reversing in Waterside Street.
The car ran over the foot of the elderly pedestrian, and an ambulance rushed to the scene.
After the man’s foot was checked, it was found that the only damage was his shoe which was badly broken up.
Inspector Joe Conway of Largs Police said; “An ambulance was called and checked the mans foot, no injury was found but his shoe was badly damaged.
“We contacted the 89 year olds daughter, who attended from nearby and walked with him back to his home.
“The driver of the vehicle has been charged with careless driving and has promised to buy the male a new pair of shoes.”
