A blazing row between security guards and a driver blocking a residential estate’s entrance ended with her car being lifted by a crane onto a roof.

Residents in Benxi city, China, watched the row play out in the street after the woman illegally parked for 38 hours and refused to pay a fine.

The security guards had the last laugh when their bosses hired a crane to pick up the car and put it on the roof of a building.

They obviously had total confidence in the strength of their own building’s roof.


The scene caused a stir among residents who began taking selfies and photographs of the marooned car as the incident went viral on Chinese social media.

Several hours later another crane turned up and removed the car from the roof.
