Police are investigating after three people fled from the scene after a van smashed into a shop front.

The van careered into the glass shop front in East Grinstead's London Road on Sunday night, taking a cable box from the street with it. 

Da Tu Di Vang, who owns Hollywood Nails, said the vehicle has now been removed but his shop was left in a state with shattered glass, broken frames and smashed window displays.
