In Kentucky, a homeowner is furious after a drive-by shooter targeted his colossal $200 inflatable Father Christmas displayed in his front yard.
From Independent UK:
Donald Nelson had just finished putting up Christmasdecorations outside his family home in Lexington days earlier –including a brand new $200 giant inflatable Father Christmas for the front yard.
Yet the family’s holiday cheer was suddenly deflated when they found the inflatable flat on the ground one evening with a large hole in it, WLEX reported.
Mr Nelson told the outlet that he and his wife had been sitting on the couch at around 8.15pm, when they heard a “small bang” outside.
When he went outside to investigate, he found saw his new Santa lying on the ground.
At first, he thought nothing of it until he looked at his home security camera and saw what appeared to be the moment the inflatable was shot at by someone in the car.
The camera footage, obtained by WLEX,shows the car turning around while the sound of a firearm rings out.
Seconds later, the Santa falls back and starts to deflate.
It's undeniably a wild world we're navigating when even inflatable Santas aren't immune to the chaos.
