In a humorous tweet, a police department in Kentucky lamented the apparent loss of a truckload of Krispy Kreme donuts.

Krispy Kreme responded with a note ”���� We’re thinking of you during this difficult time…and have more doughnuts on the way! ��”

The truck reportedly caught fire while driving on the interstate, reported WKYT-TV. No one was hurt, but the fire was a complete loss.
