 The "Independence Day" actor was detained by troopers at the Highgate Springs port of entry days after Canadian officials said he would be deported. Quaid is wanted in Santa Barbara, California, to face felony vandalism charges filed in 2010 after he and his wife, Evi, were found squatting in a guesthouse of a home they previously owned. The pair skipped several court appearances and went to Canada, where Evi Quaid was granted citizenship. U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents detained the Quaids at the Vermont port of entry at about 8 p.m. Friday after determining they were fugitives from justice and subject to extradition, State Police said. Both were detained on arrest warrants stemming from vandalism charges against them in California, and bail was set by a Vermont Superior Court judge for $50,000 US each.
– Actor Randy Quaid was arrested—along with his wife Evi—Friday night while trying to cross the Canadian border into Vermont, the CBC reports. According to the AP, the Quaids were detained by US Customs and Border Protection agents because they're still wanted on felony charges from 2010 in California. The couple had been hiding up north since then, but the Canadian government recently gave them until next Wednesday to get out of the country. This isn't Randy's first arrest this week. He was detained last Tuesday by Canadian officials, who thought he might try to flee rather than leave Canada, the CBC reports. The Quaids first fled to Canada in 2010 after being accused of vandalizing and squatting in the guesthouse of a home they once owned in California, the AP reports. They also claimed they were being targeted by the "Hollywood star-whackers," who they say killed their friends David Carradine and Heath Ledger. According to the CBC, Randy was denied permanent resident status in Canada in 2013 because of the California charges. Following his detention last Tuesday, he told the AP he was finally ready to return to the US to settle the vandalism charges and move on with his life. While he was unavailable for comment following his arrest in Vermont, we imagine Randy's long-awaited return to America went a little something like this.
