Police in Thuringia reported a man dressed as Santa who was "absolutely incapable of driving" crashing his car into a house facade and another vehicle overnight. He was trying to deliver gifts — and still plans to.
Police said they confiscated his driving license and initiated investigations on suspicion of drunk driving. They did not note details like how badly the man failed the blood-alcohol test.
"Nevertheless, 'Santa Claus' did announce that the gifts would be delivered the following day," police said, presumably on foot or with assistance from a little helper or two. By German traditions, that would make his delivery a day late, with people typically exchanging gifts on the evening of December 24.
