A miracle puppy has survived being hit at 70mph by an Italian motorist after clinging to the car's grille - for over 15 miles.

The one-year-old stray dog was hit by driver Marco Menozzi, who confessed he did not even stop when he clashed with the pooch.
But Mr Menozzi hit the dog at such speed that it became embedded in the grille under the bonnet of his car.
It lay trapped in the Peugeot 207 and managed to cling on until the car eventually stopped 15 miles further on.
Miraculously, the pup survived the ordeal, escaping with just a broken leg and bruising.
It is now in a police kennel looking for a new owner.
A police spokesman said: "He's a very lucky boy. He was saved because he was hit so hard.
"Any softer and he would have bounced off the car and been crushed under the wheels."
Mr Menozzi had been driving at 70mph on a side road in Cozze, southern Italy.
