Michail Antonio crashes Lamborghini into the front garden of a house on Christmas Day dressed as a snowman, it is reported.
The 29 year old West Ham midfielder smashed the Huracan worth £210,000 into the bin shed of 20 year old Kia Rosina’s bin shed when she was about to eat Christmas dinner with her family in Balham, South London at 6.30pm.
The Premier League player had earlier posted an Instagram video of himself a snowman costume singing “Walking in the Air”, the theme tune from the much loved classic ‘The Snowman’.
Kia told The Athletic: “Dinner was nearly ready and then I just heard this massive bang and the whole house shook.
“There are two bin sheds out there and they’re both bricks, and they went everywhere.
“At first, I thought it was a bus due to how loud the bang was. I looked outside and then I said, ‘Mum!’ then we ran outside to see if whoever was in the car was fine.”

Her mum said: “I put my arm around him (Antonio) because I was worried.
“I called the police and I asked for all the services, ambulance and fire brigade, because my main concern was that it was petrol and everyone would have to get out of the house because a lot of smoke was coming from his car.
“So I was fearing the worst like, ‘What if the car blows up?’
“He (Antonio) was on the phone shouting to someone saying he was alright.
“He kept saying, ‘Don’t keep telling me I’m stupid!’ to the person on the phone (and saying), ‘You should be asking me if I’m alright’.
“(It seemed like) the person on the phone kept having a go at him.”
A crowd of people turned up to watch him get himself out of the vehicle.
Surprisingly less than 24 hours later, Antonio ended up playing in West Ham’s 2-1 Boxing Day defeat at Crystal Palace, Premier League highlights from Matchweek 19 can be see HERE.
A Metropolitan Police statement said: “Police were called to Nightingale Lane, Balham, at 18.36hrs on Wednesday, 25 December to reports of a car crashed into a garden. Officers attended and a Lamborghini car was found at the scene.
“It was reported that it had left the road and crashed into a road sign and a garden wall. The driver did not require hospital treatment. There were no other reported injuries. There is no police investigation.”
