EDMONTON - Curtis Hargrove, who was running across Canada to raise money for the Stollery Children's Hospital in Edmonton has had his journey cut short in Quebec.
The following statement was posted on Curtis Hargrove's Facebook page:
"Hi everyone! Morgan here! Curtis usually makes these updates, but he can't right now as he has been arrested. The officer arrested him and gave me a ticket. Apparently I wasn't allowed to be parked on the side of the road, which is why I have a ticket! Curtis was arrested because the officer told him he had a choice - stop running or get arrested. If anyone has any contacts with media, contact them. Who knew that doing some charity work was a crime? We didn't!"
