The mayor of Saint-Paul-de-Montminy, Que., says he was unharmed after a citizen threw a brick and shattered his car’s windshield while he was in the vehicle. Quebec provincial police say an investigation is underway.

Driving through his small Quebec town of 800 people on Saturday morning, mayor Alain Talbot had just reached for his phone to film an angry resident approaching his car when a brick hit his windshield.

It smashed the glass, falling down on the top of the dashboard and left the mayor of Saint-Paul-de-Montminy — located about 100 kilometres east of Quebec City — in shock.

“It happened so fast,” said Talbot, who was first elected in 2017.

“I never thought it would happen like that.”

Quebec’s Director of Criminal and Penal Prosecutions (DPCP) confirmed an arrest warrant was issued Monday for Nicolas David for mischief and assault with a weapon or causing bodily harm.
