Dec.
9, 2008, Titusville, Fla. — A Domino’s delivery driver in Titusville fought
back during a robbery attempt, turning the table on two would-be crooks. Jerry
Johnson was making a pizza delivery when he was attacked. That's when he
says he fired his gun in self-defense.
"When I pulled up, I noticed it was dark. I've
been doing this for like 10 years. I know what it looks like.
People have their lights on, they're expecting you. This looked
fishy," says Johson.
It was just one shot, but it was loud enough to get Jason England out of
bed. "I didn't know what it was. I just heard a loud bang,"
says England. One of England's neighbours had ordered the pizza on Saturday
night.
Witnesses saw police surveying landscaping, which may have proved the perfect
cover for the suspects.
"They had bandannas on and they were pretty intent on hurting me.
I'm glad I had my protection with me," says Johnson. "I pulled
it out. I shot at one of them. He might be shot for all I
know."
