Santa Claus rescue on hold
LAWRENCE — An annual Lawrence holiday tradition will be rescheduled because of a winter storm.
The Lawrence Journal-World reports that firefighters had been scheduled to rescue Santa Claus on Friday night from a downtown rooftop using a ladder truck. The rescue is part of the town’s Christmas lighting celebration.
But Downtown Lawrence Inc. director Sally Zogry says this year the lights will be switched on with a timer instead.
