A decommissioned OC Transpo double-decker bus hit the Farm Boy on Belfast Road Tuesday afternoon after it came loose from a tow truck, according to the City of Ottawa.
The city says the incident happened at around 1:15 p.m. while the bus was being taken to an OC Transpo maintenance facility. The main OC Transpo garage is only a few hundred metres away.
The front end of the double-decker bus could be seen pressed against the side of the Farm Boy building after crossing over the sidewalk and coming to a stop beside a tree.
In a statement, the city said the bus “made contact with a building while travelling on Belfast Road during transport to an OC Transpo maintenance facility.”
OC Transpo said Ottawa Police Service and Ottawa Fire Services responded to the scene. No injuries were reported.
“An investigation is underway to determine why the bus became detached from the tow truck,” the city said.
