Suspect turns self in to police (with donuts) after his wanted post gets 1,000 FB shares

Responding to Redford Township police, the man posted: ”I’m not worried about it -- if you’re (sic) next post gets a thousand shares I’ll turn myself in along with a dozen doughnuts. And that’s a promise. And I’ll pick up every piece of litter around all your public schools let’s see if you can get those shares."

They did. And he did. What happened seemed to show this urban tough guy had a warm heart after all, surrendering Monday night at the Redford police station while lugging a peace offering of baked goods. That had Facebook posters across southeast Michigan emoting with words of forgiveness and hope for 21-year-old Michael Zaydel.

As well, the police posted their own verbal thumbs up Monday: “At approximately 6:30 pm, Michael Zaydel made good on his promise to turn himself in for his outstanding warrants. He walked in on his own, and not only did he bring the donuts, he brought one bagel! We would again like to express our gratitude for the support of all who followed this, shared it, and left us positive feedback.”
