WATCH: Two boys and an employee of the Goodness Childcare Centre in Vaughan sustained minor injuries after a car smashed through a fence and entered the daycare’s parking lot. As Sean O’Shea reports, police say the outcome could have been far worse. – Oct 4, 2023

Two young children have been taken to hospital with minor injuries following a single-vehicle crash into the fence of a daycare in Vaughan on Wednesday morning.

York Regional Police say the children, ages 2 and 3, and an adult female employed by the daycare, received minor injuries as a result of the vehicle colliding into the daycare’s fence.

The fence, rather than the car, hit them. The children were taken to hospital as a precaution, police say.

Police have identified the driver as a man in his 80s.
