QUEBEC — A 26-year-old Quebec City man has been arrested after the election poster of an Independent candidate was shot up.
Local police say the act did not meet criteria to be considered a hate crime.
Police spokeswoman Melanie Jobin says the man turned himself in Tuesday and was released on conditions and a promise to appear in court.
Authorities are recommending charges of mischief on an electoral document and negligent use of a firearm.
