One man was injured after crashing his truck into the rock wall of a house in Langford Monday afternoon.

Officers from West Shore RCMP responded to reports of a vehicle collision at McCallum Road and Cavalcade Terrace at around 1:30 p.m. May 18th.

Upon arrival, police found an unresponsive man in the driver’s seat of an F150 truck.

An investigation into the incident found that the vehicle was travelling on McCallum Road toward Florence Lake Road when it crossed into the oncoming lane and over the sidewalk.

The truck proceeded to hit a maple tree and crashed into a rock wall before coming to a rest on the front lawn of a house in the 800 block of McCallum Road.

“The driver was the sole occupant of the truck and was taken to the hospital,” said Cst. Nancy Saggar in a statement.

Officers found a small amount of narcotics inside the truck which led to an ongoing investigation to determine whether impairment was a factor in the incident.

“Incredibly, no one other than the driver was injured in this collision.”
