Santa Arrested at U.S.-Canadian Border Mon
Dec 23, 8:18 AM ET
TORONTO (AP) - A wind-surfing Santa was
arrested after strong winds took him clear across the Niagara River
and into the United States.
John Fulton, of Fort Erie,
Ontario, said he dons a Santa suit every Christmas season to sail
across the river.
But stiff winds and strong currents pushed
him to the U.S. side of the river — and into the arms of U.S. Border
Patrol guards.
He was arrested in Buffalo and then shipped
back to Canada without incident after signing a form stating that he
had illegally entered the United States.
