Footballer Michael Owen finds car buried under tree

Plenty of us would love to find a £100,000+ Bentley underneath our Christmas tree this year. But for former England striker Michael Owen, the sight of his posh Bentley Continental parked underneath a fallen tree was anything but welcome.

Owen had parked the vehicle underneath a tree to shelter it from heavy snowfall, outside his home in Flintshire, North Wales. But the sheer weight of the snow caused an overhanging branch to collapse, leaving the tree leaning over onto the roof of Owen's car.
