The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Museum has unearthed a station log from 1958 that purportedly tracks the Christmas Eve movements of none other than St. Nick himself. According to a post by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, the Montrose Station - Crescenta Valley Station log details a series of rooftop visits by the jolly icon of the Yuletide.

"As St Nick continued along his path fulfilling Christmas wishes of children around the world, Montrose station was able to document evidence of his rooftop visits," the sheriff's department shared. Followers of a department’s social media were treated to a glimpse into a bygone era when officers took note of a very special airborne sleigh-and-reindeer team. The authenticity of the records has not been independently confirmed, but the story adds a sprinkle of festive folklore to the holiday season.

This charming revelation adds to the holiday festivities and has been embraced by the community, with the sheriff's department expressing its well-wishes: "May your holiday season be filled with the magic of Christmas as St. Nick and his reindeer continue their journey from the North Pole to homes around the world. Merry Christmas and happy holidays from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department."
