Police Arrest 'Frosty The Snowman' At Parade

Costumed Parade Character Accused Of Clashing With Officers

Authorities in Chestertown, Md., said a fracas between police officers and "Frosty the Snowman" at an area holiday parade landed one costumed man in custody.

According to police, 52-year-old Kevin Michael Walsh, who was donning the "Frosty" suit, was arrested Saturday during the annual Christmas parade in Chestertown after he kicked at a police dog, The Star Democrat reported.

Walsh said he has participated in the parade in costume for the last 10 years and was stirred up only after his arrest, according to the publication.

The newspaper reported that Walsh was charged with assault and disorderly conduct and released on his own recognizance.

There's no word if Walsh left the police station a jolly happy soul.
