The Ottawa Police Service says driver error led to a crash Friday afternoon into the wall of a grocery store in Bells Corners.

First responders were called to the Metro on Robertson Road at around 2:45 p.m.

Police say a man in his 90s was driving the vehicle.

The Ottawa Paramedic Service says the senior was taken to hospital as a precaution with minor injuries, while a second man was assessed at the scene and released.

The vehicle has since been removed, but a hole remained in the side of the wall late Friday afternoon.

The Metro remains open.
