Police tend to the crash on Thursday morning at the Dominion Centre strip mall in Winnipeg’s St. Boniface area. (Submitted by Jennefer Stewart Larsen)
A person was critically injured when an SUV crashed into the front of a Winnipeg strip mall on Thursday morning.
Emergency crews were called to the crash at the Dominion Centre on Goulet Street just after 7:30 a.m. Police said the injured person was an adult, but provided no other details.
Shattered glass, bent metal and dislodged bricks were scattered in front of two of the stores and the SUV’s front end was crumpled against a brick divider.
The impact pushed a section of bricks into the entrance of TacoTime, bending the door frame and blowing out the glass. Other glass panels from the restaurant and neighbouring Pet Valu were also shattered.

Bricks littered the front sidewalk for several metres.
Police have said little about the crash, only that the circumstances are still being investigated.
Corrections
A previous version of this story said two people were in the car, based on a witness report. In fact, police said there was only one person in the car. Details about the car’s movements immediately before the crash have also been removed because they were not independently verified.
