There was no ‘yolking’ about a call to Nelson police Friday morning.
Nelson Police Department officers were called by the manager of a Nelson grocery store when an unidentified man was seen swapping white and brown eggs between cartons.
When confronted by grocery store staff, the man left without a word, leaving his motives a mystery.
Officers were sent photographs of the suspect but were unable to crack the case, said special NPD Const. Silk Edwards, in a press release.
“Police have hatched a plan to poach the culprit if he returns to the scene of the crime,” she said. “The suspect's actions have left many shell-shocked, but officers remain sunny-side up about catching him.”
