Crime - Santa Claus is rude: Expulsion
A man dressed as Santa Claus has mobbed visitors at a Christmas market in Cottbus. The man had previously distributed presents to people on Wednesday evening, as Brandenburg's southern police department announced on Thursday. A steward eventually discovered that Santa Claus was neither employed at the Christmas market nor did he have a permit.
When Santa Claus refused to leave and became disgruntled, the police arrived, they said. In the end, the disguised man complied with the order to leave, according to the police. It was not clear what exactly Santa had given away beforehand.
