A man is in hospital with serious injuries and will also be facing impaired driving charges after crashing his car into a commercial building in Brampton on Sunday, Sept. 24.

The violent crash on Queen Street West between George Street and Elizabeth Street North ruptured a gas line to the building and has Enbridge gas crews and Brampton firefighters on scene repairing the problem.

At least two buildings in the area, including the one that was hit by the car around 3:45 a.m., are without gas.
