Man uses pizza in self-defense

[JVKn'CVO 11]

A hot pizza can be quite a handful

A Florida pizza delivery man who was challenged by armed robbers in the city of Miramar got in first with his own weapon - a large pepperoni pizza.

Eric Lopez Devictoria, 40, flung the piping hot pizza at the gunman, then turned on his heels and ran.

He made a safe getaway, according to the Florida Sun-Sentinel, despite one shot being fired as he fled.

Police later arrested three teenage suspects, who have been charged with armed robbery.

Well, the pizza guy was hoping the TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES will show up. But, they never did.

Can't say he wasn't packing heat, heh

I presume the pizza was red-hot...

Hot coffee or tea is a better weapon.

So we've seen a guy being hit by a pizza, a woman getting hit by a sandwich, what's next?

Pizza, coffee and sandwiches - other items worthy of being thrown at President Bush.

NEVER. These are sacred items of nutrition.

Yeah - but when Bush is nearby, you're kind of obligated to pelt him with whatever you have to hand.

A personal choice indeed. I see it as depriving him of nutrients. Like a bacterium.

Pizza? Never could HAL 9000 do such a thing.
