Two people were transported to hospital by Emergency Health Services BC paramedics in Williams Lake Wednesday, Oct. 21 after injured when a vehicle began rolling down a driveway.

Williams Lake Staff Sgt. Del Byron said police attended the incident at 9:04 a.m. in the 400 block of Midnight Drive.

“Police attended and determined the driver was exiting a Honda Pilot when it started to roll down the driveway of a residence,” Byron said. “One person tried to stop the Honda which caused that person to fall resulting in minor injuries to that person.”

Byron said the Honda then rolled across the street and the driver of the Honda was “tossed” out.

The Honda then came to a stop when it hit an exterior wall at 455 Midnight Dr. The driver was injured as well.

Police continue to investigate the matter.
