OLDS, Alta. — An elderly couple were taken to hospital with undisclosed injuries after their car lost control and slammed into a garage and a home in central Alberta.
Police say the Jeep Cherokee hit a light standard, then drove the length of a wooden fence, destroying it, and continued on through a detached garage in the town of Olds on Friday morning.
The Jeep kept going, taking out part of the home on the property, and onto another property, pushing a deck off its supports.
RCMP say the vehicle went airborne for about six metres as it went over a curb.
The couple in their late 70s and early 80s were taken to hospital and police say the male driver had a medical issue that caused him to be incapable of controlling the vehicle.
No charges will be laid.
