Dim Crims: The Santa Claus Option

Rescue crews pulled a man to safety after he got stuck in a chimney in Sylmar, Los Angeles. Firefighters and police responded to the Sylmar Recreation Center around after the man managed to pull his cell phone from his pocket and call 911, KABC reports.  Cuauhtli Castillo Lujano, 27, told police he was stuck inside a hole in the ground. Once firefighters realized the man wasn't trapped underground, they went around sounding their sirens.
"The individual was saying closer, farther until they were able to locate him," said LAFD Capt. Ron Klameck. Lujano was booked for trespass of the closed public building.  KABC  says he told police he had been jumping from roof to roof of buildings because "that's what people do." Officials said the man smelled of alcohol.  More  [Thanks BJS]
