Bad Santa robs golf course
Twice in 24 hours!
Words: Tim Southwell Photography: Santa
It's 6am, December the 7th. Santa isn't due for another couple of weeks. But there's something festive rustling in the golf club chimney. It's Santa himself. Only he doesn't come bearing gifts. This is bad Santa and he's here to interfere with your drinks cabinet.
What's more, he comes back the following night (2.30 in the morning to be precise) and does it all over again. The mystery man, who may or may not be the actual Santa, was seen in a surveillance video at Vernon Golf & Country Club British Columbia, wearing a Santa hat and snaffling bottles of wine and whiskey before departing with haste.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police have asked anyone who knows any elves, or old bearded fat men to get in touch with them as soon as possible.
Contact Vernon/North Okanagan RCMP at (250) 545-7171 or Crime Stoppers at 1(800)-222-8477.
