Man arrested after crashing vehicle into RCMP Quebec headquarters
Montreal police are investigating after they say a man deliberately crashed his vehicle into the the Royal Canadian Mounted Police divisional headquarters on Dorchester Boulevard, in Westmount, west of downtown. Montreal police spokesperson Jean-Pierre Brabant said a 911 call was made reporting a crash at the main entrance of the building around 9:25 a.m. The driver of the vehicle, a 44-year-old man, was arrested but taken to hospital to be treated for non-life threatening injuries suffered in the crash. Brabant said the driver was first seen approaching the building on foot, but eventually got into his vehicle and drove "slowly" but at a constant speed, into the entrance. Police believe the driver may have been suffering from mental health issues and said he was possibly in a state of crisis. While damage to the building was considerable with glass being shattered at the entrance, Brabant said that two RCMP officers who were inside at the time were not injured.

Motorcyclist dead after crash with dump truck on Hwy. 401 in Toronto
A recent spate of copper wire thefts continued in New Liskeard last week when it emerged that tens of thousands of dollars worth had been stolen from a construction site in New Liskeard. Ontario Provincial Police are investigating after a 59-year-old motorcyclist was killed in a collision involving a dump truck on Highway 401 in Toronto Saturday morning. Police say they responded to the crash on the westbound express lanes near Allen Road at around 7:52 a.m. Investigators believe the dump truck 'lost its driveshaft' before colliding with the motorcycle. The motorcyclist, who police identified as a resident of Newmarket, was taken to hospital, where he was pronounced dead. No other injuries were reported. Westbound express lanes on Highway 401 remain closed at Avenue Road, with traffic diverted into the collector lanes. Anyone who witnessed the collision is asked to contact the Toronto OPP detachment.
