Tony Hernandez told cops he was sleeping when the unnamed woman tried to get in the front door of his California house.
When that didn’t work, the woman climbed to the roof, stripped off her clothes, and tried to slide down the chimney.
It may work for Santa, but not for her.
Hernandez told Los Angeles TV station KABC when he awoke to get ready for work, he heard the 35-year-old woman calling his name. He checked the front and back yards but could not find her.
"She said, 'I'm trapped in the chimney,' he told Los Angeles TV station CBSLA. "So I tried to get her out, but it was too hard."
Hernandez called emergency workers who removed part of the chimney to reach the woman.
Hernandez admits having three kids with the woman but added, "I don’t like the way she’s acting or what she’s doing."
He told the station. "that's not good for my kids."
The woman was taken to the hospital with minor to moderate injuries but is expected to be OK.
