Pizza delivery drivers targeted

Pizza delivery drivers have been targeted in a spate of robberies over the past two months, with police now stepping up their hunt for two offenders who allegedly stole cash, pizza, and soft drink from a driver in Kambah last week.

Police said a driver had been called to deliver pizzas to a Kambah address about 10.20pm Thursday.

But when he had got to the home, a man and a woman, both carrying weapons and wearing balaclavas over their faces, had approached him from behind.

One of the alleged offenders was carrying a baseball bat, and robbed the driver of money, pizza and soft drink, police say.

Police say last week's incident is not related to two similar incidents in recent months.

Just a week before the latest attack, three teenagers allegedly used knives to rob a pizza delivery driver of cash, a pizza, and a bottle of soft drink in Reid.

The driver had been flagged down by by a girl and two boys, believed to be aged 15 or 16, while driving along Allambee Street about 12.15am.

One of the boys had pressed a knife to the victim's back, and the girl held a knife to his neck, according to police.

The second boy then allegedly stole a pizza and a bottle of soft drink before running south along Allambee Street.

Police say the other boy took cash from the driver.

In late January, a pizza driver was robbed at knife point while making a delivery in Hawker.

The 26-year-old driver had been robbed of cash and food after going to a non-existent address for a delivery.

He had gotten out of his car to try and find the house, when two masked men walked up to him and pointed a knife at his neck and another at his waist, police said.

Police have issued a face fit of the man allegedly involved in the latest attack.

They describe him as in his late 20s, approximately 183cm tall, with brown eyes, bushy eyebrows and a skinny build.

Police believe he was wearing a white or grey hooded jumper with vertical stripes, black tracksuit pants, white skater shoes, a black baseball cap, and a white bandana over his face at the time. He was of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander appearance.

The woman is described as caucasian, in her late 20s, 163cm tall, with a stocky build, black hair in a ponytail, and wearing a navy blue hooded jumper, blue tracksuit pants, and a black bandana over her face.

Anyone who saw people acting suspiciously in Karney Street, Kambah last week or may be able to assist with the investigation, is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the website.
