Jepson said the truck was seen a short time later on a major Calgary thoroughfare where it hit between six and 10 vehicles.

He said the driver abandoned the delivery truck and ran naked into a nearby neighbourhood where he was taken into custody.

Investigators are working to determine whether the Canada Post truck was stolen, or if the driver, a man in his late 20s, is an actual employee.
