Dartmouth police apprehend the Grinch trying to steal Christmas in ‘Cops’ parody

He’s now completing community service at Santa’s village.

Dartmouth Police Department

The Grinch isn’t going to be stealing Christmas any time soon, thanks to a Massachusetts police department.

Police in Dartmouth released a video showing the “arrest’’ of the Christmas villain on Wednesday. He was, apparently, caught breaking and entering by Officer Herbie, an aspiring dentist, and Sergeant Kringle, a former master toy maker.

“Dartmouth Police Department will be out in full force this Holiday Season, making sure that NO Grinch will steal your Christmas,’’ the department said with the holiday video.
