Fall River Police

Christmas is the season to be jolly — but not for one Massachusetts drug suspect who tried to pull a Santa Claus escape, but got stuck inside a chimney, according to police.

Tuesday night, police officers executed a search warrant at a residence in Falls River, MA, prompting Robert Langlais and Tanisha Ibay to flee to the roof, cops said.

Ibay allegedly jumped from the roof onto a car parked on the street, while Langlais climbed inside the chimney … but his attempt to evade capture failed miserably.

Check out body cam footage released by the PD … it starts with the officer on the ground ordering Ibay — who is on the roof — to put her hands up, but, instead, she jumps onto the parked vehicle.

The video then cuts to a good Samaritan who informs the officer that Langlais has gone down the chimney. The cop walks to the chimney and points a flashlight inside, illuminating Langlais, who is clearly stuck.

More officers and rescue crews arrive on scene to pry Langlais out of his brick jail. Langlais was then taken to a local hospital to be checked out before he was charged with drug possession.

As for Ibay, she was also captured and charged with narcotics possession.

The naughty-list duo are clearly getting coal for Christmas this year.
