Suggestions on removing this snapped wheel nut

Someone didn't hold the ratchet head square when pulling the handle.

I would suggest application of heat from a blowtorch then use an air chisel or SDS drill & chisel on hammer only. Hold towards middle first to make a notch then turn so it's hammering it undone.

Blame the tyre shop!

Didn't use a deep socket.

Off now, 10 drill bits later.
