More than 200 partiers dressed like Saint Nick gathered in Los Angeles to do some pretty unsaintly things in the name of Santacon. It's a spontaneous, rollicking piece of performance art that, depending on who you ask, is known as Santacon (for "Santa Convention"), Santarchy (think anarchy), or Santa Rampage. The fun-loving Santas swarmed Los Angeles subways, sidewalks and bars doing some un-Santa-like things in the name of meaningless fun, the Los Angeles Times reported. Those in costume doled out oddities such as old credit cards and ramen noodles as Christmas gifts to passersby Saturday. They even stopped at bars to have a few drinks. Most onlookers say they were very amused.

A 10-year-old boy was in critical condition Sunday after three pit bulls escaped from a home and went on a rampage, attacking six people before police shot and killed the dogs, according to authorities. Neighbors said the attacks started late Saturday afternoon when children going door-to-door for a fund-raiser arrived at the home of the man who owned the dogs. The pit bulls attacked the two children, and when the dogs' owner tried to stop them, the dogs turned on him and bit off his thumb, authorities said.
