The plan was simple: Order a pizza, rob whoever showed up to deliver the pie.


But the caper did not go as the four men expected.


That was because Napoleon Harris III, arrived with the pizza in hand. Harris is a man of many hats. Not only has he served as an Illinois state senator since 2013, he is the owner of two Beggars Pizza franchises. One of which, in Harvey, Ill., received a call just before closing time on Sept. 6.


Harris is also 6 feet 3 inches tall, and weighs 250 pounds. He was a professional linebacker for several NFL teams, including the Oakland Raiders and the Minnesota Vikings. And he would soon help authorities find suspects in a murder case....

Surprised a Chicago pizza delivery guy would not be armed, so I question the intelligence of the robbers.
No punishment, in my opinion, is too great, for the man who can build his greatness upon his country's ruin~  George Washington

It happens everywhere.  A long time ago I was delivering pizza part time.   Certain locations were known to be risky and mostly nobody would deliver there.    One guy threatened to hit me and take my money.    He backed off when I said I would get my gun and come back and shoot him in the head.
