Santa Claus Presents Death As Christmas Gift

Los Angels – 26.12.08 – In an unexpected yet gruesome event, Santa Claus brought up death for six persons as Christmas Gift.

It all happened in a Christmas Party in the quiet middle class suburb of Covina about 30 Kilometers from Los Angeles where people were celebrating the festive occasion.  Little did they know that their merry making would eventually turn into a nightmarish experience culminating in loss of lives.

A man who was dressed as Santa Claus opened up fire at the Christmas party killing no less than six innocent persons in the process.  He did not stop there and went on to set fire to the house.  Later the assassin was identified as Bruce Jeffery Padro and the house belongs to his former wife.

“The 45 year old man was led into the party by an eight year old girl who thought he was there to entertain the children.  Once inside, witnesses said that the man pulled out a gun from beneath his costume, shot the girl in the face and then sprayed nearly 25 guests with bullets”, Los Angeles Police Sources said.

As a sequel to his gruesome act, the man set fire to the house with the help of a home made device.  The device was wrapped up so that it looked like a Christmas present.

“Padro has shot himself” said his brother calling the Los Angeles Police a few hours later.  Police rushed to the spot only to find Padro lying dead in his brother’s home with a gunshot wound to his head.

Victims of the sad incident were yet to be identified by the Police who are making further investigation in the event. Till now no clue relating to the motive of such awful act has been traced out by them.

“The investigation is on, and we are likely to find out the motive behind such act by Padro”, a senior police officer said.  “We expect to break in and solve the mystery in a couple of days”, he added.
