Try Again in Six Months
A Los Angeles man went through a lot of trouble to get out of the U.S. and see his lady.
The unidentified 41-year-old was found Feb. 23 nearly frozen to death on a golf course in Emerson, Manitoba, just across the border from where the Minnesota-North Dakota line hits Canada.
Local police told the Canadian Press and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (search) that the man was babbling incoherently, his jacket open and his hands bare in the biting prairie winter wind.
He was rushed to a hospital, where doctors said he might lose some fingers from frostbite.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police discovered the Angeleno had set out walking from Pembina, N.D. on Feb. 19, but had managed to cover only about four miles in four days.
Over that time, temperatures ranged from a high of 14 degrees Fahrenheit to a low of minus 22.
Apparently, the wintry walker had met a woman in Quebec on the Internet, and wanted to visit her, but for some reason had been denied legal entry to Canada.
