A pizza delivery driver used an edible weapon to defend herself from three robbers.

The 29-year-old woman was delivering a pizza in the 700 block of S. Dakota Avenue around 11:20 p.m. Monday, said police spokesman Sam Clemens.

When she knocked on the door, three men popped out from a laundry room that was behind her. Two of them had kitchen knives, Clemens said.

She had a couple pizzas in her bag. So she hit them with the pizza.

The men took off running with a pizza. The pizza employee was not injured, and no arrests were made, Clemens said.
