December 23 - Bend police issued an APB – an all-pastry bulletin – Tuesday for the holiday pranksters who secretly adorned the metal tree sculpture in front of their Eastside headquarters with dozens of edible examples of the stereotypical cuisine of choice for cops on the go: donuts.

The ample holes in the tree’s many metal “leaves” proved to be a perfect spot from which someone chose to hang oversized Christmas ornament-style hooks and a variety of glazed and chocolate donuts – even the occasional maple bar with sprinkles.

Actually, putting edible ornaments on Christmas trees is a European tradition that dates back for several centuries, though usually with apples and the like. But who doesn’t know the police patrol person’s traditional preference for the donut shop's product, with a cuppa joe?

There was no sign outside the police department beside Highway 20 on Tuesday morning that detectives had been called in to scour for clues or evidence, nor were crime scene technicians on hand to dust for fingerprints (and besides, none of them were powdered donuts, anyway).

“I told the guys this morning, ‘Whoever did this showed a total, flagrant disregard for one of the four major food groups,” said police Maniscalco, the department’s spokesman.

Eating the evidence is an old mystery-novel trick, but these baked goods didn’t really look all that appetizing after a night spent in the outdoors, on a metal hook. Maniscalco said the adornment likely would not be removed until after the holidays.

The sugary breakfast goodies appeared to be of the store-bought variety, not homemade or the rare (in these parts) Krispy Kreme brand that could have elevated the vittle vandals' fate from munchie misdemeanor to fat-gorging felony status.

The tree sculpture is located outside the front door of the year-old facility, so anyone could have stopped by to decorate it in novel fashion, under cover of darkness. When asked if he suspected an inside job, Maniscalco had nothing to offer but a pair of raised eyebrows.

Maniscalco later provided an update: “We have leads, but we are working on a reprisal instead of a warrant.”
