“Just cause it’s off license open 24/7 doesn’t mean you can park inside.”

The cause of the crash – close to Heathrow Airport – is under investigation.

A London Fire Brigade spokesperson said: “Firefighters were called to reports of a road traffic collision on Groveley Road in Feltham.

“One vehicle collided with a shop front.

“A small part of the car was damaged.

“One man was taken to hospital and one man was treated on scene.”

They added: “Crews removed the car from the building using a winch on a Fire Rescue Unit and ensured the structural integrity of the shop front.

“Control Officers took the first of three calls at 9:09pm on 9 April and mobilised two fire engines and a Fire Rescue Unit from Feltham and Heston fire stations to the scene.

“The incident was over for firefighters at 10:02pm”
