Site SearchRaleigh, N.C. — Raleigh police say an armed man went into a pizza parlor around 3:20 a.m. Thursday and shot one of the employees in the arm during a robbery attempt.

Your absolutely right, these types of things can happen anywhere and anytime. You can set all the rules you want, and take all the precautions you can...but the sad truth is that people are out there that don't mind hurting others to get something they want.
Unfortunately, since Pizza America is open till the wee hours of the morning, they make an easy target. All they are doing is filling a niche in the market and trying to make an honest living.
