Bad Santa ho-ho-holds up bank in Nashville
|
HE may have been dressed all in fur from his head to his foot, but this Santa was no saint. Police in Nashville, Tennessee, said a man wearing a Santa suit - including hat, beard and moustache - and dark sunglasses robbed a SunTrust Bank.
Witnesses said when two bank managers tried to get him to remove his sunglasses, he pulled out the weapon and demanded money.
"It was a little unbelievable. He was actually jovial, which is scary. He explained that he was robbing the bank because Santa had to pay his elves," said witness Richlyn Jones.
"I was just wondering if he was going to be stupid enough to hurt somebody, but once he started getting what he wanted, I could see he was going to leave," said witness James Edwards.
It was unclear how much money was taken.
