An elderly pair from Elm Creek are okay after their truck collided with a building in Carman.
    
The incident happened around 10 a.m. on Tuesday when the 86 year-old male driver was backing up while attempting to avoid a closely parked vehicle beside him. Instead of stepping on the brake, the driver hit the accelerator while reversing. He also inadvertently put the vehicle in Drive sending the car forward and into the commercial building.
    
Both the driver and the 80 year-old female passenger, as well as the customers and staff inside the business, were not injured. In fact, just minutes before, an employee was working in the spot where the truck came through.

Marge Warkentin owns the small business and says the woman had just gone to the front of the store to meet a customer. "We are very thankful that our employee was away from the window that was bashed in," she noted in a written statement to PembinaValleyOnline. Warkentin adds several other customers were actually shopping in the room that suffered the damage. "We are very grateful that no one in the store, or in the truck, was injured."
    
RCMP say no charges will be laid.
