Some May Call It Stupid, But It’s Only Crock Radio

Former “Partridge Family” actor Danny Bonaduce is no favorite of the Royal Oak, Mich., police department.

Bonaduce, a morning-time DJ for WKQI-FM, staged a car accident between two women as a radio stunt last week. Police and ambulances responded before they discovered it was all a trick. “Call it stupid radio - that’s what it was,” said Bonaduce, 37. “I guess I could be facing serious charges right now.”

Maybe so. “Six cars responded to my call for backup at a high rate of speed, during the rush hour,” police Officer James Ellis said. “It was gross stupidity.”

The women were were trying to win a trip to Jamaica in the station’s “How Low Can You Go?” contest.
