Howdy y'all! Bandit, an 11' long ferret, has been caught and detained by our team of dedicated FRES Deputy Sheriffs. Bandit was arrested for sock theft, stealing hearts, and for being an escape artist. He now resides in the City Jail. Yesterday he was paraded through the streets of Calgary while being tightly guarded by 14 FRES Deputy Sheriffs. With 350,000 Calgarians and visitors from all around the world sitting along the Calgary Stampede parade route, and millions more watching on TV throughout North America, Bandit is sure to now be recognized wherever he may roam once he is released from jail. Bail has been set for $5000. If you would like to help free Bandit from jail, please contact FRES at [log in to unmask] to find out how!!
