An unlucky streak of crashes has closed the CIBC at Harvey Avenue and Cooper Road in Kelowna for the rest of the day.

Around 2:15p.m. on May 5, a black truck went through a glass window at the bank. It was the third time that the bank has been hit by a vehicle, and the second into the exact same office.

A bank employee told Capital News that they saw the vehicle come across the lot at a fairly high speed. There were clients in the building at the time, but there were no injuries.

Fire and police both attended the scene.
