A police truck leaves a building located on Hopkins St., Whitby, in the middle of an ongoing police investigation. October 16, 2012. The initial reports were almost too strange to believe. Late Monday night (October 15), Oshawa's top municipal lawyer was abducted outside his home, his alleged captor a former local politician. Within hours, the solicitor had escaped and was safely back home.

Former mayor John Gray later confirmed reports that the lone man inside was Robert Lutczyk, a rabble-rousing former city councillor.Photo by: Fernando Morales/The Globe and Mail.
