A pizza delivery driver in central Florida was arrested after she was accused of stabbing a customer multiple times because she reportedly believed she was given too small of a tip.
At approximately 10:00 PM on December 22, a Marco’s Pizza driver delivered an order to a family at the Riviera Motel in Kissimmee. When she arrived, a woman answered the door and gave the employee a $50 bill to pay the $33 check. The driver started walking away, but the customer stopped her and told her she would like the change. She was informed that the drivers do not provide change, so the woman paid for the order with smaller bills and gave the driver a $2 tip.
Approximately 90 minutes later, two individuals wearing face masks reportedly showed up at the hotel room where the customer, her boyfriend, and their 5-year-old daughter were staying. The pair knocked on the door, and when the woman answered, they allegedly pushed their way into the room. The male intruder reportedly forced the woman’s boyfriend into the bathroom at gunpoint, and the female intruder went through the family’s belongings before allegedly pulling out a pocketknife. While the woman was trying to protect her daughter, she was stabbed several times.
