Dashing down the road in a one-man open sleigh, these two fancy-dressed jokers landed themselves on the police’s naughty list.
The footage was filmed in Elderslie, Scotland, and shows someone in a reindeer costume dragging a sleigh down the road, with another man dressed as Santa sitting inside it.
David Haughie, who captured the footage, is pulled over on the side of the road and has his camera pointed at the traffic on the opposite side, which is at a standstill.
Suddenly, a shadowy figure can be seen moving very slowly on his side on his side. As it gets closer to the camera, it becomes evident that it is a person donned in a full Rudolph mascot outfit, towing Father Christmas in a rickshaw. The police van lets out a singular precautionary screech of its sirens, but the pair take no notice and continue to run down the highway. A passing lorry gives the vehicle, which is fully decorated in tinsel, a beep of its horn in recognition, as police continue the low-speed pursuit at the end of the clip, which Mr Haughie uploaded to Facebook with the caption ‘Deadly police chase.’
One user commented: ‘Wildest thing to happen in the history of Elderslie!’
Another added: ‘Seen this today. Poor reindeer must of been knackered!! Luckily i was going the other way…the queue behind him was about a mile long lol’
