January is usually when Santa Claus can
let his hair down and relax.
A man legally named Santa Claus was
arrested for drinking under influence in Idaho when he was spotted driving the
wrong way.
Mr Claus, 67, was stopped by the police
in Post Falls. He said he was “confused”and not familiar with the local
streets, as reported by reliable source.
Mr Claus said he had spent the afternoon
drinking beer in a local bar then proceeded to drive the wrong way down the
street.
Police noted the smell of alcohol on his
breath and that he struggled to retain his balance, but noted that Mr Claus was
“co-operative” throughout.
The charge has been reduced to
misdemeanor and reckless driving when he appeared in court on Friday.
Mr Claus pleaded guilty and paid a $700
fine.
