On Christmas morning, police helped free a naked 34 year old man who was caught in a Minneapolis bookstore's chimney. Police have a theory that he got drunk and disrobed because he had trouble fitting in the chimney. His motive was robbery.
Police Lt. Mike Sauro says its good they found him after a few hours or he probably would have died in time for the store's Friday opening. Sauro adds: "He's not Santa Claus. He's a really skinny guy. And he's lucky he didn't get cooked."
Firefighters had to arrive with sledgehammers so the man could be freed. The bookstore's owner is unhappy because "The store is pretty well torn up." The naked man only suffered bruises and abrasions which a hospital treated.
