Alleged snack thieves arrested at Kingsport bread company, hiding with $300 worth of cakes


Published February 1st, 2010 | 7 Comments


 

Two Gray residents, allegedly caught hiding out with about $300 worth of snack cakes taken from trucks parked outside a Kingsport bread company, were arrested Friday.

According to a Sullivan County Sheriff's Office report, a deputy responded to the Merita Bread Co., 5446 Fort Henry Drive, about 11:38 p.m. An employee had called to report that he could hear someone in one of the trucks.

Upon arrival, the deputy found footprints leading into one truck that had about $300 worth of Hostess snacks - Cupcakes, MiniMuffins, Streusel Cakes, Twinkies, Zingers and 100 Calorie Cakes - piled up beside it.

A search of the area revealed the two men were hiding underneath the truck with the cakes stacked beside it.

The men were identified as James M. Denoon, 34, and Anthony Stout, 18, of 164 Lakeview Drive. They were each arrested and charged with theft under $500 and two counts of auto burglary.

You are right Richard. They start out on the easy stuff, Cupcakes, MiniMuffins, Streusel Cakes, and go on to the hard stuff- brownies, eclairs

See, they should have been home in bed asleep,

Ooo... nice Zinger, Richard.

Quarter says they had just left Fatz's parking lot after a "fattie", and you've got to quench that hunger somehow.

If they aren't careful, their snack cake addiction can Sno-Ball into more serious problems.
