RCMP say six people were transported to hospital with varying degrees of injuries after a BMW SUV crashed into the public library in Peachland Wednesday afternoon.

On April 5 at 3:57 p.m., crews rushed to the scene after a SUV drove through the front wall of the Okanagan Regional Library located on Clements Crescent in Peachland.

Witnesses reported to police that the blue BMW X3 was moving through the parking lot, when the vehicle suddenly drove over the curb and onto the pedestrian walkway before it crashed through the wall.

Police were told several innocent bystanders, who had been patrons inside the public library at the time, sustained varying degrees of injury and were transported to hospital as a result.

For some, those injuries were sustained as a result of being struck by the vehicle, while others were hit with flying debris.
