Cake prompts cop callout

A thawing cake forgotten in a South Dunedin bus stop prompted a police response after concerns from the public.

Police received a report of a ‘‘suspicious package’’ from a member of the public on Monday afternoon.

A patrol unit went to the bus stop in Victoria Rd.

‘‘It was a suspicious package that turned out to be a frozen cake,’’ a police spokeswoman said.

The cake was found to be melting, but otherwise of no concern.

‘‘I don’t know what flavour or what happened to the cake,’’ the spokeswoman said.
