    VANCOUVER — Two men who allegedly broke into a car and made off with wrapped Christmas presents will spend their holiday in a Vancouver jail.

    The men took off on foot, and but witnesses provided a description of the pair.
     
    Police say they found the "grinches" in a building nearby a short time later.
