A man who allegedly broke into an Oakland County doughnut shop was arrested after police said they followed his footprints in the snow.
The break-in happened early Tuesday at the Avon Doughnut Shop on Woodward in Pontiac. Deputies said they arrived at the scene to find a shattered glass door, an empty cash register and a bloody chunk of concrete.
Acting on a hunch, police said they followed a trail of footprints in the snow that led away from the store. The footprints ended at a nearby house.
