Randy Quaid and Wife Evi: Third Arrest in Six Months

By Zach Dionne Posted Oct 22nd 2010 05:12PM

Fugitive actor Randy Quaid and wife Evi were arrested in Canada following Santa Barbara-issued arrest warrants after both were no-shows at a court hearing Monday. Randy, 60, and Evi, 47, were located and arrested in Vancouver, British Columbia on Wednesday afternoon, CTA.ca reports.

The dodged court hearing came as aftermath to the Quaids' September arrest for allegedly squatting in their onetime home, where they apparently weren't living quietly -- a contractor reportedly showed police "more than $5,000 in damages" he believed the Quaids caused to the guest house. The two were previously arrested in April for failing to pay a $10,000 hotel bill.

The Quaids are set to appear at a Canadian Immigration and Refugee Board hearing. They were held in a Vancouver jail until being released to border agents at 10:30AM Friday.

Randy, older brother to actor Dennis Quaid, is a 1973 Oscar-nominee mired in a slew of legal troubles in recent years:

• The 'Independence Day' star sued Focus Features in 2006, claiming producers lured him to join the cast of 'Brokeback Mountain' for little pay, before the film went on to gross more than $80 million at the domestic box office.

• Quaid was expelled from the stage performers' union, Actors Equity Association, after he allegedly missed rehearsals for a play in 2007; the Seattle cast reported inappropriate behavior, and some close to the couple believe lawsuits stemming from the incident triggered the duo's criminal exploits.

• In 2009, the Quaids were accused of running out on a $10,000 California hotel bill and, after repeatedly skipping court dates, were finally tracked down in Texas and extradited.

As he enters the holding tank at the LA County Jail... Mr Quaid was heard to say" Helloooo Boys...I'm Back!"

By Bob

Time for an extended stay at the Rubber Room hotel. they need some intervention.

By Kat.

With all due respect...are either one of them mentally ill? Their behavior is inexplicable and irrational, and I would think Randy has money and/or other resources. Whatever the reason, I hope they get any help they may need and are back on track soon.

By Robert Cooke

If I had to give 1 person a second chance between Lohan....Hilton.... and Quaid... Id give it to Mel Gibson!!..
