Police are looking for two teenagers linked to the robbery of a Pizza Hut delivery man Tuesday night.

A 67-year-old man reported that he was delivering a pizza to a residence in the 5000 block of East Boston at about 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, Wichita police Lt. James Espinoza said. That’s northeast of Harry and Oliver.

He went to the door first, without the pizza, to make sure someone was home, Espinoza said. A 24-year-old woman answered the door and told him she hadn’t ordered a pizza.

Two teens then approached from the side of the house, indicated they had a weapon, and demanded cash from the delivery man. The victim complied and the two teens ran off with the cash, Espinoza said. The victim returned to Pizza Hut and police were called.

The driver was not hurt, Espinoza said. There is no indication the woman who lives at the residence was connected to the robbery, he said.
