HOULTON, Maine  — A 21-year-old Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada man was charged with obstruction Monday in a Canadian provincial court following an incident that shut down the Woodstock-Houlton border crossing for about 12 hours last Friday.

Officials with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said in a written statement issued Tuesday that U.S. officials turned Bailey Roy, one of two men involved in the border incident, to Canadian officials on Sunday and that he appeared in Woodstock Provincial Court on Monday. He remains in custody and will return to court Nov. 1, according to the RCMP.
