Pizza delivery driver robbed at gunpoint on Northwest Side

A pizza delivery driver was robbed at gunpoint by three suspects in the 5800 block of North Bernard Street on Friday night. The robbery unfolded at approximately 9:30 p.m. when the driver arrived with a delivery order from a Rogers Park pizzeria.

According to a preliminary report, the driver was instructed to call the customer upon arrival. When he made the call, three men wearing ski masks approached his vehicle and confirmed that he was the driver before two of them pulled out pistols, according to the report.

The robbers took about $60 cash from the driver along with the food he was delivering. The victim, who was not injured, returned to the pizza shop and called 911.
