AN unlucky lorry driver found himself in a tight spot when he became stuck at a Swindon garage.

The driver took the lorry into the South Marston Garage in Shrivenham Road but became wedged under the canopy because it was too tall.

Fire crews for West Lea Fire Station attended the incident 8.22am yesterday. They had to turn off the power in the garage as a precaution.

The lorry driver managed to back out of the garage.

A Wiltshire Fire Brigade spokesman said: "We needed to turn off the power because there was a danger that there could be sparks from the lorry."
