KNOXVILLE, Pa — A pizza delivery driver for Gino’s Pizza was robbed by three men at gunpoint in Knoxville just after midnight on Wednesday. The suspects made a large order, initially raising some red flags.
"They placed an order for $105 worth of food, then we proceeded to call and verify the order a couple of times and it checked out,” said Henchell.
That's when Henchell drove the food that was ordered from Gino's to Moore Avenue. Henchell said he had a funny feeling when he pulled up to the house.
"Before I got out of the car I was trying to get the cash first, but as the gentleman proceeded to count the right amount of cash, that's when I got out of the car the other two perpetrators came behind my vehicle, one of them with a gun and demanded the food and the money," said Henchell.

The three men got $48 in cash, all the food and the pizza bags.
Henchell has been a delivery driver for 20 years and has never experienced anything like this.
"When I saw the second guy I was getting ready to defend myself, but when I saw the third guy came from behind, he had a mask on, once I seen the guy and he clicked the gun, what could I do?"
Pittsburgh police are investigating, but finding the suspects is unlikely.
