Police say a man is facing ‘several charges’ after a pickup truck crashed into a fence in front of Yellowknife’s Mildred Hall School over the weekend.

RCMP say the truck drove onto the sidewalk and crashed into the fence around 11:39 Friday night.

Both the truck and fence sustained ‘significant damage’ at the intersection of 50 Avenue and 54 Street though no injuries were reported.
