A Ford Explorer SUV was driven into the Sproule’s Mountview IDA pharmacy in Red Deer Saturday morning.

The incident occurred just before 10 a.m. at the business which is located at the corner of 39 Street and 43 Avenue. Traffic may be slow throughout the day at this intersection.

Red Deer Emergency Services Platoon Chief Bernie Walker says the lone occupant of the vehicle, a female of unknown age, was taken to hospital in unknown condition.

The cause appears to have been a medical emergency, according to an RCMP spokesperson.
