MONTREAL, April 25 (UPI) -- A university student in Montreal was fined $628 for sitting on a granite ledge in a downtown park after photographing police dealing with homeless people.

Brendan Jones, 25, told The Gazette newspaper he was taking a break from studying in the National Library and perched on the 3-foot ledge to enjoy the sun. He saw three police officers approach several people in the park who apparently were drinking alcohol.
