Pizza Delivery Driver Robbed

LA MARQUE — A pizza deliver woman was jumped and robbed Sunday night, La Marque police said.

The Domino’s Pizza driver was delivering pizza to a house in the 1100 block of Roosevelt about 9 p.m. Sunday when the robbery happened. The delivery woman told police she was handing food to a man sitting on the porch when he sucker punched her.

That’s when two men jumped from behind some bushes and joined the attack. The men forced the driver back into her car and drove her about two blocks away before they got out and took off on foot, police said.

The robbers made off with only $20 in cash and about $50 in pizza and chicken wings. The driver did not suffer major injuries.

Investigators are trying to determine what connection the robbers had to the house where the robbery happened. The order was placed from a house about a block away.

Police said Domino’s is offering a reward, as is La Marque Crime Stoppers.

Anyone with information should call 409-938-8477.

Domino's, of course, prohibits its employees from carrying weapons or defending themselves in any way.

This is amazing Jim...You'd think this would be a slam dunk investigation here...The victim can easily recall the address where she was sucker punched, therefore finding the sucker puncher might be pretty easy...Driving her off a couple of blocks seemed to me to easy to determine how stupid those other two were as well...

Good thing I am not desparate enough to take on a delivery job like that...Regardless of company policy, my life is worth more than a job, yet if they want the bad publicity of firing me because I defended myself while on the clock when they send me out on these "please rob me" runs...Well, that might be a case of tough noogies on their part...

But I guess they'll never know... ;-)
