A car has crashed into a tenement building in Glasgow<\/a> tonight sparking an emergency service response.<\/p>\n

The crash happened on Leslie Street at its junction with Shields Road in the Pollokshields<\/a> area shortly before 7pm.<\/p>\n

In images shared with Glasgow Live<\/a>, a black Renault can be seen crashed into railings and leaning on the basement level, with an eyewitness saying it appears to have “clipped” the tenement building.<\/p>\n

We understand there have been no reported injuries and all occupants of the vehicle<\/a> escaped unharmed. The extent of damage to the building is unknown.<\/p>\n

An eyewitness – who confirmed police<\/a> were in attendance – told Glasgow Live: “We were coming back from the Pollokshields Christmas shopping night up at Nithsdale and couldn’t believe this had happened one block up from the January 2nd 2024 incident.<\/p>\n

“If Pollokshields can come together about antisocial fireworks we can unite and campaign for safer roads”, reports Glasgow Live<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tonight’s crash happened yards away from a similar road traffic collision on Shields Road<\/a> in January last year, where a car crashed through railings with the front of the vehicle tipped downwards.<\/p>\n
