The victim pulled his car into a parking lot at about 2:10 a.m. A man approached and asked for a cigarette, then pulled out a knife and demanded money, the summary said.
The robber made off with more than $100, the summary said. Deputies do not have any suspects.

Thanks Mike and Ed for answering my question. It being MANY years since I've been in school, I was not aware of any Pizza Shops open that late. @ IO, in this day and this economy, I would not stoop to denigrate someone over any job they managed to find and/or hold whatever it may be even though it is not my vocation or aspiration.

The guy worked for Mr. Pizza which is located at Washtenaw/Cornell by the old Hollywood Video. The driver was robbed in the parking lot of the liquor store thats by subway on washtenaw (next to the U-haul place, across from wendy's). Once he was robbed, he drove all the way back to Mr. Pizza before reporting it. Also, this happened after 2am. Liquor stores arn't open after 2.

I don't understand. Is there a Pizza shop that is open and delivers at 2am? Was the victim robbed in the performance of his duties? If not what does it matter what his vocation is? Sure we all know that Pizza Delivery is a dangerous job but was this a sensationalized headline?
