Santa Burglar Gets Lumps O' Lead For Christmas

I don't want to sound sappy, but I can't get enough of these feel-good Christmas stories:

A would-be home burglar was hospitalized Sunday morning after being shot by a homeowner, Dallas police said.

The shooting happened at about 12 p.m. Saturday in the 9800 block of La Brett Drive.

Police arrested the burglar when they arrived.

His condition is unknown at this time.

I'd say his condition is pretty shot. On the bright side, come next Christmas what better place for a would-be Santa to be than in one of those large Texas workshops getting his stocking stuffed.
