A bizarre neighbourhood feud in Runcorn has escalated to new heights when a woman's partner allegedly pretended to be hit by her neighbour's car.
Juliet Fox, 53, has received harassment charges after she allegedly asked her boyfriend to provide "corrupt evidence" during an ongoing row with her neighbour, Malverton White.
The incident, captured on camera, shows Daniel Milt lying on the ground after walking behind White's reversing Mercedes, screaming that he had been run over.
Police officers at the scene concluded the incident was faked after viewing footage from Fox's doorbell camera.

The case, which emerged at Warrington Magistrates' Court told of the six-year dispute between the neighbours, involving accusations of harassment and parking issues.
The footage shows Fox running out of her house, shouting: "Oh my God, what have you done? Are you joking?"
White, 57, filmed the couple as he accused the couple of "playing the fool".
In an alleged attempt to defame White, Fox later sent an "edited" video to Halton Housing, which manages the two properties.

Fox told the court: "I could hear screams, and I literally thought he had been stabbed, as we have had this much fighting."
She continued: "My partner does look ridiculous falling and when the police left, I said 'It is overacting'."
The neighbours had been involved in a six-year-long row, which has seen Fox repeat abuse allegations against White, while White accused Fox of blocking him in on the shared driveway.
Fox has been accused of maliciously blocking White's car with her own as she spoke with a delivery driver.

On another occasion, Fox was accused of moving paving slabs, which prevented White from accessing the communal area on his mobility scooter.
White claimed that Fox's garden extension also limited his ability to access the area.
Neighbourhood PC Jessica Wilkinson said: "In my professional opinion both White and Fox cannot live in harmony with each other.
"There are constant calls to police creating a high demand on the police force. Ultimately, to resolve the issues one party needs to be relocated."
Fox has been acquitted, while her boyfriend did not face any charges.
