Papa John's deliveryman shoots gunman in face

[kenm]

Hi, I am a freelance journalist and I'm working on a story/project for a journalism class - not for a publication - about pizza and other delivery drivers who carry a weapon on the job for self-defense in case of robberies. This is a multimedia class. I'm looking for a delivery person who carries, who would let me come with them for a shift or two, and take some video, ask some questions, etc. It might eventually be posted on a blog (through the class). Thanks. Ken. If anyone is interested, please email me, kmaguire10@gmail.com

might get few replies.... most of these companies do not allow thier workers to carry, infact I believe a month or 2 ago they (papa joph's I think) fired a driver who legaly defended himself.

Two chief concerns:

1) Why would anyone eat that nasty "pizza" in the first place?

2) Shame it didn't lodge in the bastards brain. If the guy gets fired, well, at least he's alive and doesn't have to work for a company that prefers him dead anyway.

Can't argue with you there!

Please tell me that at least that assistant manager who's posterior you saved backed you up on this!
