The case of a suspicious Santa has been solved.
Police in Norfolk County began raising concerns after a man dressed as the jolly old elf was spotted near a tobogganing hill on Saturday afternoon.
Reports suggested the man attempted to speak to some of the kids, and even tried to wave them over.
Several kids said they spotted the man climbing into a white sports utility vehicle as they left to go home.
Police now say the man has come forward and explained that he was waving and saying 'Ho, Ho, Ho, Merry Christmas' while a professional photographer snapped some promotional photos.
