The Santa Claus suit worn by suspect Bruce Pardo is pictured on the
front seat of his 2008 Dodge Caliber SUV which was driven to the
Knollcrest Drive house and later found in Simi Valley.   The suit was
apparantly booby-trapped and after being moved ignited an incendiary
device which fully engulfed the vehicle in flames.  (Photo courtesy
