JENNINGS • Police are looking for leads after an altercation over cold pizza led to a broomstick beating and gunfire.

Early Sunday, a Papa John’s pizza driver attempted delivery to a home in the 5300 block of Janet Avenue, near the intersection of Interstate 70 and Jennings Station Road.

But the home’s residents got into an argument with the driver, complaining that the pizza was cold, St. Louis County police reported.

The female resident attacked the driver with a broom handle, police said. The driver overpowered her and hit her back. And the male homeowner came out of the house with a rifle.

The pizza driver fled, stopping his car a few blocks away to call police.

But before police arrived, the deliveryman saw a silver Pontiac drive up and stop about 50 feet behind him on Garesche Avenue.

Then he heard a single gunshot, he told police.

The driver sped off again, this time across Jennings Station Road.

But the Pontiac didn’t follow. Instead, it backed up and drove north on Janet.
