It was reports of two school buses being driven in a “reckless, dangerous and destructive manner” that brought Kelowna RCMP to a church parking lot at 1:08 a.m. Monday.

When officers arrived to the scene on the 400 block of Highway 33 West they found the buses wedged together after being rammed into each other.
