Santa drives a cruiser in Cumberland

Cumberland police have been moonlighting as Santa Claus.

Midday yesterday a resident found a large bag on the road with 13 wrapped gifts and few clues about how to get it to the owners. After some sleuthing and a little help from a local TV station, the police got a tip about who might own the missing gifts.

After a little more police work - and a drive to Woonsocket - the police were able to reunite the gifts with their rightful owners: a 5-year-old, 6-year-old and a 9-year-old.
