Longueuil police (SPAL) say a senior accidentally drove her vehicle into a Brossard business, located right next to a daycare.
No child was injured, but as a precautionary measure, the daycare evacuated the children.
Two women were taken to hospital: the driver, a woman in her 80s, and a customer of the Lily Vögue women’s boutique, also in her 80s. Their injuries are not considered life-threatening.
Authorities explain that it happened around 1:40 p.m. at a plaza on Grande-Allée Blvd., not far from Hubert-Guertin Street.
The impact caused damage to the building, including a parting wall in the Garderie Bricole-Age.
A photo posted by police to social media shows the vehicle logged in the store, having crashed through the front glass windows and having broken through a wall of the daycare.
“A structural evaluation will be carried out to ensure the safety of the site,” add authorities.
