The Incident
On Tuesday, January 03, at 5:30 p.m., Worcester Police responded to Papa John’s Pizza located at 691 Grafton Street for a report of a past unarmed robbery of an individual. On arrival officers spoke with a 31 year old man who had been robbed, he is an employee of the restaurant.
Police were told that the victim was in his car on the way to make a delivery to an address on Jefferson Street. As he was driving on Vernon Street towards Pattison, a white Chevy pickup truck cut in front of his car, almost causing an accident. The victim was able to avoid a collision and drove around the truck. He continued on Vernon Street and noticed that the white truck was following him. As the truck and car stopped at a red light, the passenger of the truck began yelling profanities at the victim.
When the light turned green, the victim turned his car onto Jefferson Street and pulled over, intending to make his scheduled delivery. Before the victim could exit his car, the white pickup truck pulled up behind him and both the driver and passenger exited and approached the victim’s driver’s side door. The passenger from the truck pulled open the victims door and threw a cup full of ice coffee at the victim. Both suspects then pulled the victim from his car and threw him onto the ground.
Realizing that the victim was a delivery driver, the suspects demanded the victim hand over his money. The suspects then forcibly removed a small amount of cash from the victim before leaving the scene in the pickup truck.
