Pizza Driver Shot Tonight

Pizza driver fatally shot after making delivery - 13 WTHR Indianapolis

Complete savages. Hope they are caught and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

I used to deliver for Papa Johns as a second job. I always carried, despite company policy that driver's weren't supposed to have any weapons.

Sad....

Complete savages. Hope they are caught and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

2 to the brain pan would be my vote.

 

[Indynic]

This reinforces to me the reason to carry ALL the time.

 

[rockhopper46038]

Aww, crap.

I never picked up the pizza delivery gig, but I can't imagine doing that job without being armed.

 

[gunworks321]

Man, this just sucks! Prayers to the family.

This is so sad. Such a waste and for what reason? Why? When does it end?

I wonder if the penalty for murder was to die in the same manner in which your victim died...maybe that would eliminate this type of thing.

So sad. I delivered for about three years while in college following my military stint. ALWAYS had an auto on my side (1911 or 92FS Beretta) and an AR shorty in the back seat. In the end, I had drawn pistol three times and the AR once, but the demeanor of a military guy carrying probably diffused other incidences before they unfolded. Actually had to fire the AR, but only once in a fire suppression role. It really is a jungle out there when you're alone in the dark and known to be carrying a bag of cash and hot pizza. Once you show yourself to be a somewhat hardened target however, interest seems to be quickly lost by those who would roll a common pizza boy.

Ironically, just after I got the alert from WTHR and posted this, our usual Friday night pizza delivery from Pizza Hut showed up. I took a couple of extra minutes to invite the driver into the house and related this story to him. I told him to please be aware of his surroundings and to always be alert to potential bad situations. Gave him a nice tip and sent him on his way. Hopefully I planted a little seed of SA with him.

That's very nice of you.

BTW, I'm a Pizza Hut fan too.

I know many hard working two job people that delivers Pizza in the evening and at night. These good fine people would rather work than ask for handouts or revert to crime. People who shoot, rob and kill other people because they are too lazy to work for themselves don't deserve to live in my Country. Send them to Iraq to live or .......?

If he came in the house, he failed test #1.

Story time! I'd like to hear the incidents if you don't mind.

Exactly what I was thinking!

 

[X piller X]

Yeah... turns out this is a friend of a friend of mine. (not that my friend is close... high school classmate that I havent seen in 20 years, but still...) To hear her talk about him on Facebook, he was an alright guy. So sad.

Small world this town of Indy...
