Nabbed for car trick

By CP

LEVIS, Que. -- A man has been arrested after driving his vehicle into a building housing the province's workers compensation offices.

Quebec provincial police were called to the scene near Quebec City after the man reportedly had a detonator attached to a gasoline can.

The 51-year-old suspect had previously made threats to the office and threatened to kill himself with a knife.

Local police say he was taken to hospital where he will undergo a psychiatric exam.
