Little Debbie trail leads police to burglary suspects

 

If it wasn't for Little Debbie, three burglars might have gotten away with stealing six packages of instant lottery tickets, according to Syracuse police.

 

That's Little Debbie, as in the popular snack food.

 

After burglars smashed a window early today at the Midway Express Market and fled with lottery tickets and some snacks, Officer James Johnson followed a trail of discarded Little Debbie coffee cake wrappers from the West Onondaga Street store to the third floor of a nearby apartment building, according to police reports.

 

Officers knocked on an apartment door, were permitted inside, and found a crumpled up box of Little Debbie coffee cakes and numerous lottery tickets there, police said.

 

Three people at the 400 W. Onondaga St. apartment - Curtis Hudgins, 17, Adrian Huddleston, 20, and a 15-year-old youth - were charged with burglary, grand larceny and criminal mischief.

 

"This was a combination of good police work and a stupid criminal," said Sgt. Tom Connellan, the departments spokesman.

Dummies, when given the choice, always choose Hostess products. HoHOs or Dingdongs are my personal favorites.

A couple of years ago here, a punk and his chickee went into an all-night Kroeger's supermarket, and purchased some Hostess cupcakes and swiped his Kroger's "card" for his discount. Then he pulled a gun and cleaned out the register.

 

Cops were waiting at his house... <_<

There was a report years ago, of some guys that stole money from an ATM on the Thruway, that they noticed had not been shut securely when it was last filled. They caught the guys because one of them had already placed his atm card in the machine, so there was a record of who used it.
