Charges are pending against a 42-year-old woman after she allegedly drove her SUV through a business in Wawanesa, Man., last week.
According to Souris RCMP, they received the report of a car hitting a building at Main Street and Fourth Street in the community at approximately 4:15 p.m. on June 2. When Mounties arrived, a large hole in the front of the business was visible and a large crowd had gathered at the scene.
Investigators say an SUV driven by a 42-year-old woman crashed into the front of the building on Fourth Street, with the driver then backing the SUV up and driving it into the building a second time. The driver backed out, left the SUV and was taken to hospital for minor injuries. She was later released.
