A 31-year old man has been arrested in Quebec after leading police on a slow speed chase.

The National Post reports, the naked man was using a tractor as his getaway ride.

Police say the man’s father called police around one in the morning Friday saying his son was in a drug-fuelled rage.

When police arrived the man took off on a tractor but was only going around 30km/h.

Officers eventually arrested the man and he was taken to hospital for psychiatric assessment.
