If you can can handle the Cherpumple, if you can deal with the Krispy Creme Cheeseburger, then behold the turDunkin! From Unwholesome Foods, this creation is a turkey
brined in Dunkin’ Donuts coolattas, stuffed with munchkins and served with coffee gravy and mashed hash browns. The turDunkin’ should not be confused with the hot meaty mess that is a turducken, which is a turkey stuffed with a duck stuffed with a chicken.

Emergency crews responded to a report of a driverless car running amok in Wildwood, New Jersey on Sunday. Wildwood Fire Captain Chris D’Amico eventually stopped the vehicle.
“I’ve never corralled a car before,” D’Amico said.
D’Amico said that he found an opportunity to jump into the passenger-side window while he was standing inside the circle the car was making.
The empty older model Ford Thunderbird took to the road on its own when the driver got out of the car in order to switch seats with his passenger, officials said
The car’s passenger suffered minor injuries when he tried to jump back in the car earlier.
Comments at the story recalled Ford having recalls of vehicles from that era that would slip out of park into reverse gear. Link -via Smart Stop
Aren’t these donuts adorable? The text at the source is in Japanese, and the Babelfish translation didn’t help, so I don’t know who made them. They’re like a sweet real-life version of Nekopan! Now I want a donut. Link -via Nan Koenig
Update: Reader MimiAudia speaks Japanese, and kindly translated for us:
Today’s featured animal donuts are Mike and Kuro (Ed: Mike is short for Mike neko, or 3-colored cat, and Kuro means black). (*^_^*) Mike is debuting for the first time today! We are waiting for you ? From Floresta – Kawasaki-prefecture, Motosumiyoshi store

When a local bakery got in economic trouble, the brave officers of the Michigan police department swooped in to protect it: they bought their favorite doughnut shop and re-named it Cops & Doughnuts!
"To Protect and Serve" has taken on a new meaning for the Clare Police Department.
When officers heard that the Clare City Bakery was closing its doors, they protected the business from certain demise.
Now, they’re serving up doughnuts. [...]
In addition to doughnuts, cookies, muffins, brownies, bread, fruit turnovers and other baked goods, the bakery sells mugs and T-shirts bearing the "Cops & Doughtnuts, 100 Percent Cop-Owned" logo on the backs, and "You Have the Right to Remain Glazed," and "Handcuffs and Cream Puffs" on the fronts.

Retired arson investigator and state trooper Ken Borders has opened a doughnut shop in Kentucky and named it Police Doughnuts.
“Being in police work for 32 years, it’s been a standing joke that cops and doughnuts, they go hand-in-hand,” he said. “I just figured that it would be a catchy name.”
Borders said Police Doughnuts is meant to recall a time when officers really did hang out at doughnut shops, whereas today’s police “are all into this fitness crap.”
And what do the police think?
“I have two words for it: hysterical and genius,” said John Keeling, a metro police patrol officer who lives in Eastwood. “I wish I had thought of it.”
Louisville Assistant Chief Troy Riggs said doughnut shops once were the only places open in the middle of the night, which is why officers hung out there, establishing the stereotype.
He thinks that’s outdated now, but “if it helps them do business, good for them,” he said.
