The blows just keep coming to veterans in the province. Three men have been arrested for allegedly stealing a Legion Poppy can from the Willow Grove Convenience store. The theft was captured on video. Two 29 year old Saint John men and a 23 year old Quispamsis man will face charges in court at a later date.
The arrests come just days after the provincially designated war memorial in Fredericton has been badly damaged by vandals. A two-metre granite cross was pushed over on the weekend smashing it to pieces. It will be repaired at a cost of several thousand dollars, but not in time for tomorrow's Remembrance Day ceremonies.
