Where did you get that little "news" item?? That is actually the plot of an episode of the crime drama "Dragnet".

And a belated Merry Christmas to you, Bill!
The item is one of many
X-mas related e-mails I found in my mailbox, had no idea the plot was lifted from someplace else. Actually, it crossed my mind to alter it along the following lines before posting it here:

It was the day AFTER Christmas at a church in Toronto. The Pastor of the church was looking at the manger scene, when he noticed that the baby Jesus figure was missing from the cradle. He immediately turned and went outside and saw a guy in a rusty old army truck driving down the Street. And in the 2C1 cargo body of the rusty old army truck, was the figure of the infant Jesus. So he ran up to the guy and said, "Son, where did you get that little baby Jesus that's in your rusty old army truck?" The guy replied, "I got him from the church". "And why did you take him?" asked the pastor. The guy replied, "Well, about a week before Christmas, I prayed and I told Jesus if he would bring me CMP for Christmas, I would give him a ride in it!"
