A 31-year-old Ottawa man has been charged after allegedly committing a lewd act while making a delivery at Fitzroy Provincial Park.

On May 28, shortly before 1:30 p.m., a park employee reported seeing the driver masturbating while staring at her. As the employee went to seek help, she heard a loud noise and saw the delivery van speeding away, crashing through the park's front gate.

The driver returned to the park for another delivery on June 2 and was arrested on June 5. He was charged with committing an indecent act in a public place and careless driving, and was scheduled to appear in an Ottawa court at a later date.

Fitzroy Provincial Park is about 60 kilometres northwest of Ottawa. The allegations have not been proven in court.
