The Annual St. Boris Church toy drive ended early after a surly guest was forcibly removed by off-duty HSL agents after mistaking the event for a Toys-for-Tots drive. Event coordinators told the Chorus that the disheveled man smelled of booze, cigarettes, and body odor. He arrived with a toy train to donate and demanded a meal in exchange for the donation. When he was informed the event was for donations and no bartering would be accepted, he flew into a rage.

The man demanded ‘taters’ for his donation. Father Ned Appleton witnessed the scene, “He was very angry that there was no food in exchange for his toy. Thank the Lord for the brave men and women that handled the situation. It got a bit scary for a moment,” he said. The scary moment Father Ned referred to was caught on camera and has received nearly 100,000 views on CNPS Stream since it was posted last night. A volunteer who wished to remain nameless said, “He walked up to a few of us and kept asking ‘Where’s the ketchup?’, we were all very confused. We thought it was a joke.” From there, the volunteers signaled to a few off-duty HSL agents to speak to the man. That’s when the man smashed his train on the ground and rushed the agents. However, he was quickly overpowered and removed from the event.

When reached for comment, HSL COO John Chester said, “We are aware of the incident involving off-duty agents and their actions at the St. Boris toy drive. We are proud to say no injuries occurred to any of the parties involved. We were able to help this man get a hot meal and lodging for the night. It seems this man misunderstood the intention of the toy drive.” St. Boris declined to pursue charges against the individual.
