Altoona (WEAU)-Officers arrest a man for fraud after he approached businesses and asked if they’d sponsor a children’s cancer run/walk.

The department says after an investigation, it was found that multiple businesses were victims of this fraud in the City of Altoona and the City of Eau Claire. Both departments are looking to identify any additional victims.

Davis is currently being held in the Eau Claire County Jail.
