The Penticton RCMP is currently investigating a single vehicle collision that occurred Sunday evening, where a vehicle struck and damaged the fence surrounding a residential property.

The incident took place at approximately 8:00 pm in the 3400 block of Wilson Street area. The male driver of the vehicle sustained minor injuries and was transported to the nearest hospital for treatment.

Fortunately, no other persons were injured in the incident, and the surrounding fence of the building sustained moderate damage, with no impact to the building itself.
