“The outcome of this incident could have been a lot worse.

“I am keen to hear from anyone who may have been driving around the Chester Road, Ivy Road area of Macclesfield on Monday and may have caught dashcam footage of the suspect.

“I also want anyone who witnessed the incident or may know who the offender is to come forward.”

Anyone with information or dashcam footage is asked to call Cheshire Police on 101 quoting IML 633793 or report via https://www.cheshire.police.uk/ro/report/
