As if Alaskans don't have enough of a nincompoop reputation to live down after electing and supporting Sarah Palin, apparently their police can't handle a stolen pizza without calling in a SWAT team. According to the Associated Press, Anchorage Police say a plot to steal a delivery man’s pizza warranted use of a SWAT team. The police spokesman says a man trying to deliver a pizza order this weekend was confronted by a guy with a gun and a stick, and then three other young people attacked him from behind, grabbed the pizza he was delivering but ran away without taking his money (wow...genius). The delivery man then followed one of his attackers to a home where police arrested her. The other suspects then barricaded themselves somewhere in the home, prompting authorities to call in a SWAT team that took care of the rest.
Yes folks, SWAT to deal with teenagers stealing pizza. Hmmm... Is there a way to get their oil without keeping the state? :/
Love how everyone skips right over the gun part. Armed robbery, anyone?
