She was trying to go out in a glaze of glory.
I ain't even mad at her, I'm just jelly.
Haha nice
Bravo
Do what you must, I have already won
It was like a homing beacon for cops. They were gonna catch her eventually
Homing beacon for the bacon.
"Police said the spoiled doughnuts were "destroyed."" Quote 'destroyed', umm hmm.
" Krispy Kreme reported the incident to the police and reassured customers then that it was "working to replace the 10,000 stolen doughnuts," the BBC reported." Now New South Wales has to consume 2X the donuts just to catch up, cant have corporate taking the loss. Diabetes incoming.
"In September, a very different kind of doughnut truck heist was also caught on camera more than 7,000 miles away: Two bears on an Alaska military base raided a Krispy Kreme doughnut van that was stopped outside a convenience store during its delivery route." Yay Bears!!
I remember when this first was reported, and I wondered what the plan was; I mean what do you do with 10K donuts.
"I mean what do you do with 10k donuts"
If you have to ask, then you haven't been paying attention.
Do.... do you fuck them?
When there's 10k, not alone.
Not with that attitude
I can destroy 10k doughnuts too. I can also destroy a bathroom toilet in the process.
Florida vibes
Australia is the Florida of the world
All the fun wacky parts, but without most of the cruel authoritarian shit. Except for being racist towards black people.
From what I've read, it's already moving that way.
I guess you haven't heard of the Murdock news problem over there.
Well aware. Spent a bunch of time over there and my wife lived and worked in Victoria not too long ago.
Still, when it comes to public policy around health care, woman’s rights over their body’s, access to weapons, the transition to renewable energy, etc, they make the US look like Max Max Fury Road.
Technically abortion isn't actually legal in Australia. Technically. And in some places nearly impossible without driving a real long way.
To be fair, lots of stuff is nearly impossible without driving a long way in Australia. That’s just Australia.
99% sure the only reason we rarely hear about Australian racism is because of how successful they've been in segregating natives from colonizers.
Nah, QLD is Australia's Florida, NSW is more like it's Texas.
How many were left tho?
Only half, it was perfectly balanced as all things should be.
Classic cops, only taking cases seriously if it directly affects them.
What a glorious two weeks though.
i can't believe they could fit that many donuts in a person.
You'd be surprised what a squad of cops can do on break.
Police state no donuts were found and they are considering the death penalty
You don't particularly understand the capitalist system you're rebelling against as a criminal if you steal a rig. Their masters have them on GPS at all times. You'd have to actually make the deliveries if you want to get away with it. But now you have a job.
It's a full proof plan

Can it really be worth spending 20 years in prison to nab a few Krispy Kremes? I never thought they were all that good anyway, kind of sickly sweet if you ask me. I mean I could stealing a truckload of chocolate, maybe - or a truckload of gold bars, but not donuts.
You guys frontin like we haven't all done that as well
After 2 weeks she had slowed to a crawl
i find it quite disturbing that there are bears in the alaskan military
That’s who you want to cuddle in that weather.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
An Australian woman was charged Thursday with stealing a parked truck filled with 10,000 Krispy Kreme doughnuts — after two weeks on the run.
New South Wales police said the unmarked delivery truck had stopped for fuel on the outskirts of Sydney on Nov. 29 when a 28-year-old woman allegedly hopped inside and made off with the freshly baked booty.
Detectives followed a trail of crumbs to a suburban carpark, where they found the abandoned vehicle more than a week later.
Officers arrested the woman, who was not identified, at St Marys Railway Station, at about 11:00 am on Thursday.
She was charged with "take and drive conveyance without consent of owner, drive motor vehicle during disqualification period and travel or attempt travel without valid ticket," police said.
In September, a very different kind of doughnut truck heist was also caught on camera more than 7,000 miles away: Two bears on an Alaska military base raided a Krispy Kreme doughnut van that was stopped outside a convenience store during its delivery route.
The original article contains 222 words, the summary contains 172 words. Saved 23%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
If I had an unmarked white van full of sweets I would leave it in a terrible neighborhood and spray paint "free sweets inside for children".
Those things look like circular hotdogs.
Fuck, now I'm hungry
I know a place where we can have all the donuts we want.
Let her go, ref
at first I read Krispy Meme doughnuts
And she stole that American garbage they call a donut?
Amazon’s air packing materials have more cake than their raised dough produces, but I like donut glazing, and they slather those little hollow circles.
My donut preference is a warm maple old fashioned from my local mom and pop place, but I’m not gonna lie, if you give me a Krispy Kreme, I’m going to eat that shit.
Donuts are supposed to be light and airy. What, you get mad at whipped cream and soufflés too?
Don't get me wrong, those cake circles that you can get in a bag at the gas station or dunkin are good if you have nothing else around, but nothing beats a fluffy, sweet, melt in your mouth, hot of the line Krispy Kreme (or equivalent non-cake airy style, ykwim) donut.
Donuts are great. Krispie Kreme are hot garbage though.
Oh yeah fucking love donuts. Just not KK shit.
