Squirrel steals doughnut from police officer in Alaska

June 27 (UPI) -- Police in Alaska shared video of a squirrel running through a station's parking lot with a doughnut it stole from an officer.

The Anchorage Police Department posted a video to Facebook showing the squirrel fleeing through the parking lot filled with police cruisers while carrying the pilfered pastry in its mouth.

An officer follows the squirrel while filming it, but the furry thief takes notice of its pursuer and runs off.

"Seriously. He stole a perfectly good donut. FROM A COP. That's a straight-up felony. Also... it's rude," the Facebook post said.
