Arsenal star Bendtner's Aston Martin smashed in crash

London, Sep.29 (ANI): Football star Nicklas Bendtner's 160,000 pound Aston Martin was a mangled wreck after he crashed it while driving to his club's training ground.

The car careered off the road and ploughed through a fence before smashing into a tree and coming to a stop in a field, reports The Sun.

Bendtner walked away with just a bruise to his shoulder and a grazed knee.

The car, however, was smashed beyond repair, with its front wheel ripped away, the driver's door caved in and roof folded downwards.

An East of England Ambulance spokesman said the Danish international had a "very lucky escape". (ANI)
