NEIGHBOURS living by a picturesque beach are at their wits end thanks to a 'filthy rich' Ferrari owner who has parked his £250k motor on a cop's parking bay.
The offender moved his 812 Superfast onto the private police bay on Wharf Road in St Ives, Cornwall last week.
One local snapped the supercar occupying the space, which is marked with yellow lines and has the word 'POLICE' painted across.
The photo was then posted online, with one viewer slamming the culprit for their "entitled" behaviour.
Another user condemned what they viewed as a "prime example of the filthy rich, believing they are above the law".
While the bay is naturally not to be used by locals, the space serves as a convenient access point to the gorgeous seafront.

Devon and Cornwall Police have on occasion been seen driving a Lotus Evora GT410 Sport, however it is unlikely this vehicle is being used for police purposes across the region.
It comes after fellow residents hit out at underage toffs for burying their 4×4 motors into Cornwall town's sandy shore.
