December 15, 2012 - Cruising Santa
A subscriber caught a rare glimpse of the jolly man himself, Santa! He was cruising around Santa Barbara in a silver convertible and happily waved to
the photographer. Is that Rudolph in front of Santa riding a scooter in a red helmet? Perhaps, but either way Kris Kringle is soaking up the Santa Barbara sun
before it starts to rain. Shouldn't he be prepping for the big day?
In the news: A local man was arrested for videotaping underneath women's skirts, the CHP reports on a recent high speed chase, and the ice skating
rink project needs more money. Read these stories and more, below:
