Classes are expected to start again after a pickup truck drove through one of the Holy Cross Elementary School walls.

Holy Cross, located at 300 Dubuc St. in Winnipeg, had a white pickup truck drive through one of their classroom walls on Tuesday shortly after the school was dismissed for the day. 

"We have a problem with vehicle speed, size and weight in Winnipeg. It is unacceptable that this truck could be driven into a classroom at Holy Cross," says Safe Speeds Winnipeg on Facebook.

Currently, police are investigating and no criminal charges have been laid.
