ALBUQUERQUE - The phrase gross misappropriation of resources has new meaning for one Albuquerque policeman and his pilot. The officer and the civilian pilot were on night patrol over the city in a Kiowa OH-58 helicopter when they landed in a vacant lot next to a Krispy Kreme doughnut shop. The pilot and a police officer landed the copter early in the morning, ran in and grabbed a dozen, came back out and took off, Albuquerque Police Department spokesman Brian McCutcheon said. I don´t know whose brain child it was, but it´s an ugly child, he added. A Krispy Kreme employee didn´t see why people were making a big deal of the unusual doughnut run. Cops got to eat, too, he said. disciplinary measures are being considered.
