Randy Quaid Arrested in Vermont On Fugitive Charges Reportedly Over 'Santa Barbara Property Dispute,' Said Actor

Quaid, 65, and his wife Evi, were arrested while attempting to cross borders from Canada into the United States on Saturday. They are being held awaiting extradition on arrest warrants outstanding in California, said USA Today.

Quaid along with his wife are also wanted in Santa Barbara, California, to face felony vandalism charges filed in 2010. The couple was found squatting in a guesthouse of a home they previously owned.

Reasons for arrest warrant were not immediately clear but Quaid had recently commented that they were related to a longstanding dispute over a property in Santa Barbara. Quaid and his wife were arrested in California in 2010 on suspicion of burglary and entering a building without consent, said Yahoo! News.

Actor Randy Quaid is expected to be arraigned in Vermont in connection with a California vandalism case, said CBS Local. The pair skipped several court appearances and went to Canada, where Evi Quaid was granted citizenship but Randy Quaid's bid for permanent residency was denied, said Fox News.

Quaid is to appear in court Monday on a fugitive from justice charge. It wasn't immediately known if a hearing will be held for his wife.

Quaid is known for movies such as "The Last Picture Show" and "The Last Detail," for which he received an Oscar nomination, as well as the 1980s "Vacation" comedies. He is also best known for his roles in films such as "National Lampoon's Vacation" and "Independence Day."

He is the older brother of actor Dennis Quaid, said Yahoo! News. Attempts to reach a current attorney for the Quaids were unsuccessful early Saturday.

Denis Quaid commented on the news about his older brother and his wife stating that the couple's behavior, statements and videos they've posted to social media, including a sex tape, are an act - a way of expressing themselves, said Burlington Free Press.
