An officer dressed as Santa Claus has taken part in a police operation against drug sales in the Peruvian city of Huaral, north of the capital, Lima. In the video that accompanies this news, you can see how the undercover agent breaks down a door using a hammer and subsequently participates in the arrest of two people.
Because the traffickers' home was in an area inaccessible to the authorities, the Santa Claus costume has been key to the police operation "being successful," said Colonel Walter Palomino, head of the Green Brigade, in charge of leading the investigation.
