Police are investigating after five masked men confronted a pizza delivery driver and robbed him at gunpoint in New Haven over the weekend.
The driver told police he was delivering an order to a home on West Park Avenue around 6:50 p.m. Sunday when a man sitting on the porch confronted him along with four other men, all wearing masks.
One took out a gun and held it against the driver’s side. The thieves demanded money, so the driver handed over his cellphone and a few dollars in cash, according to police.
Investigators have not been able to track the phone or identify the suspects.
Police said the residents of the home on West Park Avenue had no knowledge of the robbery and had never placed an order. Authorities believe the robbers sent the order to an address other than their own and waited for the delivery driver to arrive.
Anyone with information on the robbery is urged to call New Haven police.
