Toronto police say a pick-up truck crashed into a high school causing damage to the building on Monday morning.

Police were called to George Harvey Collegiate Institute located on Keele Street, just south of Eglinton Avenue West, at around 8:50 a.m.

Investigators said the truck collided with the building where the school’s guidance office is and an “engineer will be needed to access structural integrity.”

The Toronto District School Board said no one was in the office at the time but staff and students in the main office and classroom adjacent have been relocated for the day so the structure can be assessed.

The driver of the blue pick-up truck remained on scene. The circumstances leading up to the crash are unclear at this time.
