Rest in sweets. Police in Lexington, Kentucky ended the year on a tragic note on Monday after a Krispy Kreme Donut truck caught fire… and couldn’t be saved.
Hours before ringing in the new year, officers received a 911 call from a truck driver who reported that his vehicle had caught on fire. Officials were able to extinguish the flames shortly after it was reported.
Thankfully, no one was injured and — more importantly — the truck was not carrying any sweet treats at the time. The truck, however, is expected to be a total loss.

The department took to Twitter to pay its respects to the fallen metal hero that brought so much bliss to locals, sharing photos of multiple officers hanging their heads in front of the singed vehicle. Shortly after, other police departments from across the country started to send their condolences:
Our hearts go out to Lexington donut lovers during this devastating time.
