A Mercedes turned into a ball of fire after crashing into a parked car on Gżira’s Rue d’Argens early on Friday morning.
The car went up in flames at around 3am after its driver smashed it into a parked Hyundai i10, police said. No details about the driver were available at the time of writing, though police said that nobody had been hurt in the incident.
Police closed off access to the road for motorists’ safety and the car was burnt to a crisp by the time the fire was put out by Civil Protection Department officials.
