Acting on a tip, detectives infiltrated a local bakery and posed as customers. After establishing contact with a disgruntled employee, they learned of a plan to pilfer thousands of cookies from the establishment. Under the cover of darkness, the suspects stealthily made their way into the bakery and began loading up their backpacks with boxes of cookies. However, they were unaware that their every move was being monitored by the undercover officers. As the suspects prepared to flee, the detectives swooped in and made several arrests. In total, over 5,000 cookies of various flavors were recovered, including chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, and sugar. The stolen goodies were valued at over $10,000, making this the largest cookie heist in Boise history. The suspects, identified as three local residents, have been charged with grand theft and breaking and entering. They are scheduled to appear in court next week. Police spokesperson Lieutenant Mark Smith expressed amusement at the unusual nature of the crime. “We’ve had our fair share of strange cases over the years,” he said, “but this one definitely takes the cake – or, should I say, the cookie.” The recovered cookies were generously donated to local charities, providing a sweet treat to those in need. The sting operation has become a cautionary tale about the risks of stealing baked goods and the unwavering determination of the Boise Police Department to protect the city’s culinary treasures.
