TEENAGE tearaways smashed a stolen car into a shop wall last night.
The young grief-riders lost control of the red Metro on Firs Lane, Leigh.
The car, which had been stolen in Leigh earlier in the evening, careered into the wall at Heaton's General Store. Three youths, aged about 16, were seen climbing from the wreckage and running away from the crashed car.
The teenagers are believed to have lost control of the car because of the wet and windy conditions.
