A 49 year old homeless man, Craig Tamanaha, climbed to the top of the 50ft Artificial NewsCorp / Fox News Christmas tree, wedged some papers in it and set it ablaze last night. Mr. Tamanaha then climbed down the tree and watched it go up in flames as stunned bystanders watched.
Several individuals in the vicinity claim some anti-Fox News remarks were made while he was being arrested, this has not been confirmed by the NYPD.
Tamanaha is charged with criminal mischief, reckless endangerment, arson, criminal nuisance, endangering others, criminal trespass, criminal tampering and disorderly conduct.
