FOX 5/KUSI reached out to the Carlsbad Police Department for comment on the matter, with an official stating that at least "three Santa victims" have come forward so far. Authorities have yet to provide additional details regarding the trail of events. As for the "famous Highland Santas," the households on the street are hoping to keep the holiday spirit alive despite the misfortune. One of the neighbors is reportedly making a run to Orange County for some replacement inflatables to bring back to the local community. The giant inflatables sell for about $200, making the total loss around $600. An investigation remains ongoing. This is a developing story. Please check back for more information.
