A woman has been arrested after a car ploughed into a Clyde North home during the early hours of Thursday, 23 January.

It is understood the female driver crashed into a Moorgate Road house about 12.10am before fleeing the scene in her vehicle.

“The car was located abandoned nearby a short time later, before the woman was located and arrested in Wenn St about 1am,” a Victoria Police spokesman said.

She is currently in custody assisting police with their enquiries.

No one was injured during the incident and the investigation into the exact circumstances remains ongoing.
