Bizarre News of the Day: Donut Guy Slashes Tires Over Coffee

NATICK, Mass. — All the customer wanted was coffee. Instead, he needs four new tires.
Police say a worker at a Massachusetts Dunkin’ Donuts slashed the tires on a customer’s Jeep after the two got into an argument Tuesday.
Thirty-nine-year-old Thomas Zazulak was charged with malicious destruction of property and disturbing the peace.
Police say the dispute broke out when the customer – whose name wasn’t released – started to leave because he was tired of waiting for the cup of coffee he ordered.
Words were exchanged, then Zazulak allegedly followed him outside, pulled out a folding knife and slashed the tires.
Police said the clerk, the only worker on duty, then resumed serving customers. Zazulak did not return a telephone message left at his home in Framingham.
