A pickup truck crashed through a parking lot and drive-thru of a Winnipeg Tim Hortons restaurant on Friday.
Emergency crews were called to the scene, in the 800 block of Waverley Street, at about 9 a.m.
The driver of the truck had a "medical incident," according to police.
It caused him to lose control, hit a snowbank and median then veer off into the Tim Hortons lot.
Two vehicles waiting in line at the drive-thru were hit by the truck, which then continued to the parking lot and spun a couple of times, colliding with another six vehicles.
Police have not released any information on injuries.
