Jamie McDonald: Cross-Canada runner 'beaten up'

A British fundraiser who is running unaided across Canada has been attacked during New Year's Eve celebrations in Banff.

Jamie McDonald, 27, said his bag, which contained film footage of his journey as well as cash and credit cards, was stolen in an unprovoked mugging.

He has so far raised almost £70,000 for sick children's charities including Great Ormond Street Hospital and Gloucestershire's Pied Piper Appeal.
