Angry parents attack Santa and his elves

A Santa and his elves have been attacked by parents outraged at exorbitant entry prices and long queue times at a Christmas theme park.
Blows were reportedly exchanged by furious parents at the Lapland New Forest attraction, which has been dubbed "Winter Blunderland".
The Sun reported that a dad was so angry at queuing for hours he hit Santa.

Three elves and three security guards were also said to be attacked in other incidents.
"The final straw for one dad came when after four hours he was told he would have to join another queue for his child to get a present – so he marched up and punched Santa on the chin," former staff member Adrian Wood told the newspaper.
The theme park, described as a "glorified car-boot sale" has been blasted for charging a "rip-off" £30 entrance fee.
Disappointed customer Claire Harnett and five-year-old daughter Tierney, told the newspaper they spotted Santa with his beard off having a smoke.

She said: "The whole experience was appalling, especially for the cost."
Recruitment agency Richards Events said they advised the 25 workers they supplied to quit working at the theme park.
Managing director Sue Holzher said: "We can't expect our staff to take constant abuse and do not want to put their safety at risk."
The RSPCA has also launched an investigation after dozens of complaints about the treatment of husky dogs, reindeers and donkeys on the site.
Dorset County Council's trading standards has received more than 1300 complaints about the park.
