Police are appealing for witnesses of an incident where a car was written off just 30 yards from a school.
The driver of a white Audi TT lost control before crashing into a lamp post on Millhand Villas in the Longfield area of Trowbridge, just metres from Oasis Academy Longmeadow school.
The three men in the vehicle fled the scene.
An eyewitness from Trowbridge said: "We saw a car come flying down the road. My little boy was sat at the front window which faces onto the road and he started crying.
"When I went over to him I saw the car which had crashed into the lamp post.
"Three black men got out the car, one ran down an alley way through the houses and the two others ran down the road in the direction of Sparrow Street.
"The driver of the car was wearing flip flops."
