Real Story: Man Steals Little Debbie Snack Cakes Delivery Truck To Go See His Friends, Gets Arrested Near Bakers Lane

ELMIRA, N.Y. (WETM) – An Elmira man has been charged with stealing a Little Debbie snack cakes delivery box-style truck so that he could visit his friends.

Elmira Police responded to Weis Market on Main Street on Monday, March 25 after someone reported a delivery truck being stolen from the loading dock. Police located the truck 20 minutes later on Lake Street in the area of Bakers Lane and arrested the driver, 38-year-old Joseph Tocco.

Elmira Police say Tocco admitted to taking the vehicle and utilizing it to visit relatives and friends. Police say it does not appear that any inventory was missing from the truck.

I simply don’t believe this is a real headline. A guy stole a Little Debbie snack cakes delivery truck to visit his friends and then was caught and arrested near Bakers Lane. Come on…

He didn’t even eat any snack cakes! That might be the jail worthy offense over stealing the truck! He just wanted to see his friends and didn’t have a ride. Never heard of Uber or Lyft I guess, or he’s never own a cell phone/credit card and didn’t have that. We don’t judge a book by its cover here at Barstool, but if we’re looking at this guy and factoring in he stole a delivery truck to see his friends then odds are he doesn’t have one dollar to his name. We’re just talking facts here, folks.

What’s the best Little Debbie snack cake? Clem blogged this two years ago and eliminated honey buns. That makes sense considering how messy they are. I’m personally a sucker for a Nutty Buddy.
