Christmas Eve at a Berry Farms toy giveaway in Southeast D.C. ended with an unexpected bang when Santa was shot in the back with a pellet gun, reports ABC7′s Kris Van Cleave.
That Santa, Xavier Hawkins, has been giving out toys to hundreds of children for the last 7 years and didn’t want to leave the scene.
“We could hear it coming out the window — muffled, boom — they didn’t get hit. I’m glad I got hit and no one else got hurt,” said Hawkins.
In the spirit of Christmas, a man dressed as The Grinch stepped in hand out gifts.
“This year, I decided to give back. My heart grew three times.”
No one has been arrested; but one Twitter user said it best:
