Pumpkin Causes Van Driver To Veer Into Okanagan Lake

Pumpkin Forces Driver To Veer Into Okanagan Lake

After a pumpkin smashed through the driver's side window, a van veered into Okanagan Lake Saturday morning.

The incident occurred around 1 a.m. Saturday.

The van was travelling on Highway 97 near Antler Beach in Peachland when someone apparently threw a pumpkin at the vehicle.

The pumpkin smashed through the driver's side window causing the driver to veer into Okanagan Lake.

The condition of the driver or other occupants is unknown.

Neither the RCMP nor Peachland Fire Department could immediately be reached for comment or to confirm the details.

Video taken by the dive team who helped pull the van from the lake shows pieces of pumpkin still inside the vehicle.
