Mr. Fresh Sought for Questioning

Dough Boy Sought for Questioning in Muffin Murder

Police in Doughville, Minnesota announced today that they are trying to
locate Mr. Pop N. Fresh, better known as the Pillsbury Dough Boy, for
questioning in the apparent murder of a local muffin.

"It was really crummy," said Police Captain Crunch when describing the
crime scene. "The remains were scattered all over the sidewalk. Some
people had stepped in it before our forensic team arrived on the scene.
What a nightmare. Still, we are highly skilled at reconstructing
fragmentary evidence." When asked to give details, Mr. Crunch said he
thought it was blueberry.

Police Captain Crunch further explained that Mr. Fresh was being sought
for questioning as a possible witness, not as a suspect. "It appears
that the crime took place immediately after one is his "Yeast Shall Be
First" revival meetings in the Dough Nation Town Hall and Discount
Emporium of the Lard," he told reporters. "This gives rise to the
suspicion that Mr. Fresh, or one of his lieutenants in the Dough Nation
Croissantourage, may have more information. We're hoping that someone
will throw us a bone or leave a scrap on the doorstep that will lead us
to the real culprit."

Pierre Baguette, spokesperson for the Dough Nation World Tour, issued
the following statement:

"We are saddened by the untimely demise of this as yet unidentified
muffin. Although we in the Dough Nation have no knowledge of the crime
or its perpetrators, we wish to express our solidarity with all of the
world's dough, regardless of color, creed, race, ethnic origin,
nationality, or religious affiliation. Mr. Fresh has announced that
there will be a 3-minute period of silence at the Ma Stah Pa Stah
concert and revival meeting this Thursday. Both Ma and Pa Stah have
agreed to Dough-Nate their usually fees to "Crust Fund" in support of
the muffin's surviving family members."
