Pizza Delivery Man Shoots BB Gun Wielding Robber
I guess the perp, Kevin Martin, learned the hard way that you don’t want to bring a BB gun to a real gunfight. The punk got what he deserved.
Also, investigators speculate that this was not Martin’s first robbery. Less than 24 hours before this incident, a similar robbery happened just a few streets over from where Martin lives.

[Augusta, Georgia] – Police said a pizza delivery man will not be charged after he shot a man who tried to rob him Sunday night.
According to Richmond County sheriff’s investigators, Tavarius Lewis, 32, a Papa John’s pizza delivery man, had a license to carry his Smith & Wesson .40-caliber handgun. He made a delivery to what turned out to be a vacant residence on Dent Street, police said.
According to a Richmond County Sheriff’s report, 18-year-old Kevin Martin, of Reese Avenue in Augusta, pointed what turned out to be a BB gun at the delivery man and demanded money.
Mr. Lewis pulled his own gun and shot Mr. Martin several times in the stomach.
Mr. Martin was taken to the Medical College of Georgia Hospital where he is in serious but stable condition, according to Sheriff’s Sgt. Calvin Chew.
