Imagine waiting for a pizza you ordered to arrive and having a cop show up with it. That’s what happened to one surprised customer in California after their delivery driver was arrested while on the way to bring the pie.
The Murrieta Police Department posted the story on their Facebook page, explaining that Officer Datil pulled over a driver for a traffic violation and then discovered he also had an outstanding warrant. So the delivery guy was arrested, but he still had a pizza he hadn’t delivered yet. And that’s when Officer McCarthy took over. He stepped in, driving the pizza to the waiting customer.
Officer McCarthy didn’t take a tip for his service, with the department posting, “The smile on the hungry citizen’s face was all the ‘tip’ needed to know we are doing our job.”
