♦ Pizza Delivery in Salisbury is fast becoming a most dangerous game as the number of pizza delivery armed robberies in Salisbury ramps up. A popular pastime in the Bury is relieving pizza delivery persons of their pizza, wing orders, and wallets and sometimes even their vehicles. We fear for any woman delivering pizza after dark to a fake address where an armed robber might go for far more than piping hot pizza, wings, and a bulging wallet filled with the night’s tips.
After 12:30 a.m Friday a Papa John’s delivery person Dashanna Poe pulled out of the Holly Leaf Apartments by Woodleaf Road in Salisbury after completing a delivery. She had break to a stop. A gray Toyota blocked the exit. She blew her horn. Moments later someone came up on the Pizza delivery vehicle’s driver’s side. A pistol leveled on Poe.
“Give it up–all your money,” said the female robber feigning a husky voice.
Poe handed over an undisclosed amount of cash to the robber who promptly jogged off into the dark.
The robber was described as a Black female wearing brown sweatpants and a black zipper hoodie with its drawstrings pulled tight to obscure her face and head.
Persons with any knowledge of the incident or the robber are urged to call the Salisbury Police at 704-638-4333 or Salisbury-Rowan Crime Stoppers at 704-932-7463.
