A retired Texas man in a kilt was arrested for allegedly visiting antique stores and sticking pieces of merchandise up his rear end before putting them back on the shelf for purchase.

On the afternoon of February 10, a man went to the Antique Gallery of Houston and a store called The Curiosity Shop located inside the Antique Mall. While he was at each establishment, the man, who was wearing a kilt, reportedly picked up items and stuck them up the back side of the Scottish skirt. According to reports, he then removed each piece of merchandise and reshelved them.

When the authorities were notified, a deputy from the Special Operations Unit talked to the person who made the complaint from Antique Gallery of Houston. They were informed that a man came into the store and took two pieces of merchandise off the shelves, a brush and a “hardware piece,” and put them up his anus. The items were returned to the shelves with what appeared to be feces on them, and they had to be thrown in the garbage.

A Pompton Lakes man who volunteers as a Santa Claus impersonator was pulled over while driving on Monday and arrested for alleged drug charges.

Charles R. Smith, a retired New Jersey Transit worker, currently does volunteer work dressing as Santa Claus for the Toys for Tots Foundation. He had been driving down Route 46 around 2:00 in the morning on Monday when South Hackensack police pulled him over for a routine traffic stop. Smith stated that he was on his way to a nearby motel at the time. One of the officers spotted a crack pipe next to Smith’s Santa suit which was hanging in the vehicle, and a search of the car allegedly uncovered empty plastic bags containing crack cocaine and heroin residue. A hypodermic needle was also said to be amongst the contraband items.

66-year-old Smith was taken into custody and faces two counts of possession of drug paraphernalia. He was released shortly after his detainment and awaits a court hearing. It is unknown whether Smith has legal representation at this time.
