A delivery truck in Brookhaven, Georgia, spilled part of its load on Tuesday. The Brookhaven Police Department dispatched officers posthaste to bear witness to the tragedy. Several cases of Krispy Kreme donuts were scattered about the road, and some were even in the gutter. It was a traumatic experience for the responding cops.
The Associated Press has more.
Police say their response time to the call was stellar, but they missed the five-second rule. The post asked for thoughts and prayers as the total loss of the doughnuts deeply affected all the department’s officers.
Police later added a comment with an update to the so-called tragedy. It says officers in Gainesville sent a batch of sympathy doughnuts to Brookhaven police in their time of mourning.
