YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - Betty Myers of Youngstown tells 21 News she was surprised Saturday night to see a large police presence outside her home.
“They had our houses surrounded,” Myers said. “From my neighbor's house all the way up [the street] was police.”
But the South Side woman was even more shocked to learn why they had arrived: a delivery driver was allegedly robbed on her front doorstep, and it wasn’t the first time.
According to Youngstown Police reports, there have been at least two aggravated robberies outside Myers’ home in the past week — one last Thursday, and the incident Saturday. Each involved a pizza delivery driver, one from Papa John’s and one from Domino’s.
In each of the incidents, after the driver arrived on scene, a suspect or multiple suspects emerged from hiding
