'Run for Peace'
The scandal is causing some race sponsors to scale back their support.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Charlotte-Mecklenburg detectives are searching for a man who they say embezzled money from the charity he directed.
Grayson Henry Russell is accused of stealing donations from the �Run for Peace� marathon, which takes place in January and is sponsored by The Charlotte Observer and several other local businesses.
The marathon is set up to raise money for The Family Center and the United Family Services Shelter for Battered Women -- two places that provide safety, counseling and assistance to victims of domestic violence."
