Vehicles crash into SW Plaza, closing intersection

A southwest plaza housing a popular grocery market was damaged Friday afternoon, after a commercial vehicle crashed into the building at 17th Avenue and Sirocco Drive as well as colliding with three other cars.

Police say the commercial vehicle didn’t stop until coming into contact with the building which is home to a Sunterra Market grocery store, just off 17th Avenue.

Adam Loria from EMS, says paramedics were on scene a short time later.

“One person has been transported to hospital by paramedics in stable and non-life-threatening condition with minor injuries. It was an adult male,” says Loria.

A few other people were assessed and released on scene and the market was not impacted by the crash, open for business as usual.

The Police Traffic Unit has taken over the investigation. There’s no word on the extent of damage caused to the building but it’s reported, the vehicle hit an electrical room of the building.
