A bemused car driver in Olsztyn was red-faced with anger when he went outside and found his Volkswagon Passat missing.

Assuming it had been stolen he immediately reported it to the police but then found himself red-faced with embarrassment when police discovered it had been buried under snow outside the front of his house.

“The street was so deeply covered by snow, the owner just didn’t notice it,” said Izabela Niedzwiedzka from the Police HQ in Olsztyn.
