Deliveryman Robbed of Cash, Pizzas, Police Say
Two men armed with a gun ordered pizzas to be delivered to a certain location and then stole them as well as the driver's money and phone, Joliet reports said.
A Domino's Pizza delivery man was robbed at gunpoint Sunday night in the 300 block of Columbia Street, according to Joliet police reports.
Initially, the person ordering two pizzas from the 571 Collins St. store asked that they be delivered to the 600 block of Columbia, but called back later to switch the delivery location, Cmdr. Rich Demick said.
When the driver arrived, a man came out a hidden area, displayed a handgun and told the victim to hand over his cash and cell phone, Demick said. A second man took the pizzas, he said.
