Santa arrested at U.S.-Canadian border

TORONTO -- 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.
