Yukon MP tackles, arrests woman vandalising his election sign

Ms. Boles was unaware defacing election signs was a criminal act.

She was on her third blue placard, carefully tucking the cutout plastic bits under the sandbags holding the signs, when she heard a rustle in the bushes. In the Yukon, this usually signifies wildlife, and Ms. Boles tried to make out whether the dark shape was a bear or possibly a young moose.

It was dark and rainy, and Ms. Boles, alone beside the empty highway, had only her trusty bike, Sancho. Her adrenaline spiked. As the shape got closer, Ms. Boles realized it was two men: one in black, the other in camouflage.

It happened fast. Ms. Boles’s left arm was twisted behind her back and her body was forced to the ground. In pain, terrified of sexual assault, Ms. Boles still couldn’t bring herself to use the knife she was carrying to deface the signs. “As a gentle spirit, I could not imagine using it as a weapon in any situation,” she said. “It didn’t even dawn on me.”

The poor nincompoop probably doesn't realize that this is going to work against him. I just found it funny for some reason. Who isn't already fed up with all the crappy signs out there, I know I am and they are going to stay for a long long time.
