City flower planters were spread out along Highway 1 in Salmon Arm near the intersection with 4th Street NE on Wednesday afternoon, after being struck by a transport truck.
Just after 3 p.m. on June 14, emergency crews responded to an incident where the truck, which was coming down the hill, appeared to have gone off the highway onto the sidewalk, pushing the flower planters with it.
Fire Chief Brad Shirley said from what firefighters gathered, the truck came down the hill, lost its brakes and ended up taking out two lamp standards as well as the planters.
