TORONTO - The army is looking into a bizarre incident in which a tractor-trailer loaded with anti-aircraft missile launchers was seen rolling down a major Ontario highway.
Several police cruisers were needed to pull over the vehicle as it travelled westbound on Highway 407 near Toronto.
The trailer was carrying two armoured personnel carriers bearing Department of National Defence licence plates and loaded with anti-aircraft missile launchers.
Police say the carriers, formerly registered to the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, were supposed to be delivered to Montreal on Thursday.
Police took the driver into custody at the scene, and the armoured carriers have been taken to a storage depot.
A spokeswoman for the Department of National Defence says the army is investigating.
"At this point, I don't have any confirmation on anything," said Lieut. Morgan Bailey.

Intended Victim Puts Rape Suspect In Hospital

A rape suspect is in critical condition after being fended off by his intended victim.
Police Special Victims Unit Captain John Darby says when the 30-year old woman said no thanks, the man forced his way into her West Haines Street home and started to rape her in front of her two year old child.
"At some point she was able to talk the male into interrupting the attack so that she could place the child upstairs in the bedroom in safety."
That was the moment she needed. She went away with the child and came back with a knife which she plunged into the man's chest.
Police say ran off and collapsed on the street where police escorted him to Einstein hospital. He's expected to live to face charges.
