A 62-year-old St. Thomas woman was arrested during the Santa Claus Parade Saturday after a dispute with another attendee escalated into an alleged assault.
Police say the altercation occurred when the woman became upset over her family’s view of the parade being obstructed. She allegedly struck another parade-goer in the face, knocking them to the ground.
Officers responded, arresting the suspect without incident. She was taken to police headquarters and later released with a court date.
No further details about the incident or injuries have been provided.
