A trucker with a mean streak is being sought by cops after causing a lot of damage to a Ministry of Transportation building on Highway 11.

Powassan OPP are investigating a report of mischief at the MTO scales. 

They say sometime between June 20, at 5:30 p.m. and June 21, at 7:17 a.m. a large commercial motor vehicle backed into the southwest corner roof line of the MTO inspection station. 

But cops say this was no accident.

Due to the angle of the hit on the building it is obvious that the damage was done purposely, say OPP. 

Damage is over $5,000.

They are asking anyone with information regarding the trucker responsible for the mischief should contact police 1-888-310-1122 or you can call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS), where you may be eligible to receive a cash reward of up to $2,000.

That's a big 10-4 Rubber Ducky!
