A Lexington police officer was grazed by a flying doughnut Friday.
Police said the incident occurred during Lexington's Festival Night, an annual event that welcomes Santa to Lexington Center for the official lighting of downtown's holiday display.
I'm no legal expert, but I suspect that a decent defense attorney could punch a "hole" in this assault with flying donut charge. Unless the attacker had that "glazed" look and then maybe other charges could be filed. Then there is that whole statement of the officer being grazed by a donut. I thought policeman grazed on donuts, not the other way around!!

I was like: "WTF?"
