Shopfront damaged after van crash in city centre

Optical Express has cancelled appointments with opticians after the incident

A shopfront has been cordoned off after a van crashed into a city centre building.

Pictures showed a large, badly damaged window at Optical Express in Haymarket, Norwich.

Norfolk Police said officers were called to reports of a single-vehicle collision at about 04:50 BST but no-one was injured and no arrests were made.

A spokesperson for Optical Express said: "Patient appointments at our Norwich clinic have been postponed this morning due to an incident involving a heavy goods vehicle that caused damage to the building."

"We are actively addressing the situation and aim to resume patient care as soon as it is safe to do so. We are grateful everyone is safe," it added.
