An SUV careened into the bleachers at a West Kelowna baseball field in April and the city wants to pay the bill for the repairs with the unknown driver's insurance.
It’s unclear what caused a four-door pickup to lose control and collide with the bleachers, but a 22-second video provided by the city captures the crash.
The vehicle is described as a light-coloured SUV, possibly an older model Nissan Pathfinder or Frontier with a canopy, according to a City of West Kelowna media release issued today, June 23. The accident happened at 5:15 a.m. April 10.
“Fortunately, the driver appeared to be unharmed,” the release says.
There was an estimated $35,000 of damage to the bleachers and a fence at Darroch Park on East Boundary Road.

“We are not seeking any charges against the driver; we are simply trying to recover costs through insurance," the release says.
