Pizza: ‘The only weapon he had’
December 15th, 2008
A South Florida pizza delivery man fought back with the only weapon he had when a customer pulled a gun on him: a large, steaming hot pepperoni pizza.
Police said 40-year-old Pizza Hut delivery man Eric Lopez Devictoria threw the pie at the gunman Wednesday afternoon, then ran for safety.
Police said at least one shot was fired as Devictoria fled, but he was uninjured.
Three teens have been arrested and charged.
Utterly ridiculous.
UPDATE: Firearms and Freedom:
This story is a perfect illustration: the delivery driver chose not to be a victim. After that, he used the tools at his disposal to defend himself. He may have been better off carrying a gun, but when crunch time came, he used what he had, and made it through.
