COPS CHASE STOLEN DONUT TRUCK
Crandon man bail set for donut truck theft
Cash bail of $2,100 was set today for Warren G. Whitelightning of Crandon, the man who allegedly led police on a high-speed chase through Madison's west after stealing a Krispy Kreme Donut truck when he was when he was drunk early Saturday morning.
Assistant District Attorney Michael Verveer conceded that the scene described in the criminal complaint of several squad cars chasing a donut truck around the west side could elicit laughter from many. "Because what you have is two different police agencies chasing the defendant in a stolen Krispy Kreme donut truck with donuts flying out of the back of the truck," he said.
To top it all off, the guy stopped in a Copps Food parking lot.
Tip of the hat to R. Balko for the lead on this story. Also be sure to read the comments - too funny. C'mon, even if you're a cop you have to admit this is funny.

Mr. 'whitelightning' has shown that art imitates life. The poor man threw away none years of his life in a splendid display. God bless you, you insane maniac!
Screwing with a cops doughnuts is like kicking a Hells Angels Harley. This act is almost suicidal.
This guy just became Homer Simpson's hero
Then there's the Krispy Kreme Bacon Cheeseburger.
