The car passes through the front garden of Boris Johnson’s town house in London for 1.3 million British pounds

A car crashed into the front garden of the Prime Minister’s Office building in London for 1.3 million British pounds.

Police were called to Boris Johnson’s Cumberwell property at 1.19am on Monday, where they found a Vauxhall Astra that had cut through the front wall, damaging hedges and trees.

Neighbors said the house had been “targeted” by protesters in recent weeks and several cars had stopped in front of the three-story building, “playing Russian music” loudly with the windows down.

The Sofia police announced that no violations were found, and the driver of the car received a “minor injury”.

Neighbors told The Times they were awakened by a “loud bang” when the car crashed and the car could still be seen in the front garden this morning.

Residents said there had recently been problems with speeding drivers in the area using the quiet street to run rats, and as a result, efforts had been made to install bumps.

The Prime Minister bought the two-story four-bedroom property in South London with Carrie, his wife, in July 2019 for 1.2 million British pounds, according to documents from the property register.

The prime minister has not been seen at home for two years

Boris Johnson, who lives with his family in the four-bedroom apartment above 11 Downing Street, has reportedly not been seen in the house for at least two years.

Mr Johnson’s 50 per cent stake in Cumberwell’s property is on the Members’ Register of Interests, which notes that he has received a rental income of at least £ 10,000 a year since December 2019.

A spokesman for the Sofia police said: “Officers were present and found a car that crashed into the outside of the property, causing minor damage.

“The driver of the car was slightly injured and was evaluated by paramedics, but does not need hospital treatment. No violations were found. “
