Stealing is bad, but creative joyriding is good, old-fashioned, bad fun. I heard someone say this story was life imitating The Simpsons. Warren G. Whitelightning is one of the best names I’ve heard this year.
Great Doughnut Chase Caught On Tape
Police: Man Steals Doughnut Truck From Parking Lot
NBC10.com | December 5, 2007
MADISON, Wis. — Police chased a man in a stolen doughnut truck through the streets of Madison, Wis., and the whole thing was caught on tape.
The video came from a University of Wisconsin police cruiser.
A man stole the Krispy Kreme doughnut truck from a convenience store parking lot on Saturday night, authorities said.
He stopped the truck once and police closed in on him. However, the suspect, Warren G. Whitelightning, backed up and struck the cruiser.
Police said Whitelightning then took off with police in pursuit.
As Krispy Kremes flew everywhere, the suspect fled to a store’s parking lot where he gave up, police said.
Whitelightning was being held in lieu of $2,100 bail, authorities said.
He faces numerous charges, including vehicle theft, shoplifting (for the alleged theft of eight red-hot pickled sausages from a local store), attempting to elude pursuing officers, drunken driving and hit-and-run.
