Man running across Canada for cancer charity arrested by Quebec police after using Trans-Canada Highway
QUEBEC — A man attempting to run across Canada for charity was arrested near Quebec City for taking his journey along the shoulder of the busy Trans-Canada Highway. In a further blow, Curtis Hargrove’s RV was vandalized by a group of teenagers after his arrest.
Hargrove, from Alberta, faces a charge of obstructing justice because he refused a police officer’s demand Monday that he get off the autoroute near St-Jean-Port-Joli, about 120 kilometres northeast of Quebec City.
The 23-year-old, who has been running about 50 kilometres a day since he left Newfoundland in early May, was taken to a police station in Quebec City and released a few hours later after signing a written promise not to run on the Trans-Canada in Quebec. He was given a court date for Sept. 21.
