CALGARY -- Stunting charges have been laid against a city man for allegedly yelling a vulgar phrase at a TV reporter.

A female CBC reporter was interviewing a man on 17 Ave. S.W. -- known as the Red Mile -- during the Calgary Flames' playoff run last month about the rash of people yelling the vulgar phrase, "f--- her right in the pussy" when someone in a passing truck allegedly yelled it at them.

Police were able to identify the truck and a ticket was issued this week.

The fine for stunting is $402, according to police, and it increases to $543 on May 1.

Journalists covering Calgary's Red Mile reported numerous instances of people yelling the phrase at them, including one Global Television reporter who had a man carrying a beer take his microphone and say it during a live broadcast.

A City-TV News reporter in Toronto confronted a group of men who were waiting to say it to her earlier this week, resulting in one of them being fired from his job at Hydro One.

In Timmins, Ont., CTV reporter Jessica Gosselin on Thursday was interviewing a woman about Sexual Assault Awarness Month when a pickup truck drives by and a man yells something that was censored from the report.

"Oh, there we go," Gosselin said to the woman being interviewed.

"So there's a really good reason why we're doing Sexual Assault Awarness Month," the woman responds.

Stunting falls under the "prohibited operation of vehicles" section, and is described as performing or engaging in any stunt or other activity that is likely to distract, startle or interfere with users of the roadway.

He was the passenger. How... ugh, I don't know.
