Pizza delivery driver robbed at gunpoint in Portsmouth

PORTSMOUTH  -- A Domino's Pizza driver was robbed making a delivery Wednesday afternoon.

It happened just before 2:00 p.m. on Pullman Avenue.

Det. Jan Westerbeck says the delivery was ordered to 210 Pullman, but that number didn't exist, so the driver called the number given with the order.

A man yelled for the driver to come to 200 Pullman and, when he did, police say he was robbed by two men, one with a gun.

They took his money and personal items, including a cell phone.

Westerbeck says the suspects told the driver to leave and keep walking and not to return to the block.

She said it's the second robbery of a pizza delivery driver in that area in the past two weeks.

Details of the previous robbery weren’t immediately available.
