BROOKHAVEN, Ga. - The loss of Krispy Kreme doughnuts documented by police in Georgia has come to a bittersweet ending.
A Facebook post from Brookhaven police shows officers respond to the scene of "total carnage" Tuesday morning. It says dozens of doughnuts fell from a delivery truck into the gutter. 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. It says officers in Gainesville sent a batch of sympathy doughnuts to Brookhaven police in their time of mourning.
