Vons Worker Accused Of Putting Needles In DonutsLast Updated: 09-18-06 at 6:53PMHe’s accused of putting pins in coworkers’ donuts at a Mira Mesa Vons, because he was having a bad day. Police say it went down on tape, but the suspect is denying he did it.Derrick Lentz, 19, appeared in court Monday, facing a felony charge for his actions on what he told police was just a bad day. He’s accused of booby-trapping a box of donuts last week.Lentz, who worked in the deli section, reportedly went into a break room, opened up an employee refrigerator and started pushing the pins into the donuts that belonged to another 18-year-old employee.“We do have evidence. There is video of the defendant in the break room when this occurred,†said Deputy District Attorney Melissa Vasel.Lentz’s coworker bit into one of the donuts and suffered minor injuries to the mouth. No one seems to know why the Mira Mesa College student would do something so random and dangerous. Police initially reported that the individual hurt wasn’t targeted for any specific reason.“Can't speak for what his possible motive was, in this case. I just think we're fortunate here that nobody was seriously hurt,†Vasel said.The actual charge against Lentz is one count of adulterating food, which is a felony. His bail is set at $50,000, and at last word, he was still in custody.
