From Staff

Two men jumped a Domino’s Pizza deliveryman Wednesday night, kicked him and stole the cash he was carrying, according to Spokane police.

The victim, 20, told police he was walking in the 1400 block of West Fifth at about 8 p.m., looking for the address to deliver the pizza.

The victim said two men approached him. One man yelled at him and the other went behind him. When he turned around, he was kicked in the chest. The victim fell, and as he tried to get up, the other man stole about $20 he was carrying. The men then ran west on Fifth Avenue.

The men were described as black males in their late teens or early 20s. One was about 5-foot-8 and thin, the other about 6-foot-1 and 160 pounds.

Anyone with information on the robbers is asked to call Crime Check at 456-2233.
