A Dunedin teen who crashed into a parked car blamed a cat going on a late night prowl, police say.
Senior Sergeant Anthony Bond, of Dunedin, said police were called to an accident at 3.30am on Friday, in Kaikorai Valley Rd.
The 18-year-old driver said he swerved to avoid a cat which was crossing the road.
The man ended up swerving into a parked car, causing both vehicles to smash through a fence and into a neighbouring property, Snr Sgt Bond said.
Police believe both the cat and humans involved in the crash were uninjured.
