Police Deliver Pizza After Arresting Delivery Agent In Arizona, US

The role of the police is to protect citizens and ensure that everyone follows the law, among several other responsibilities. However, considerate and kind police officers are often willing to go the extra mile for the comfort of the public. Recently, one such heartwarming incident was reported from Tempe, Arizona, in the United States. The Tempe Police Department shared a video from the incident on their official X handle, which has since gone viral. In the clip, two police officers are seen standing outside a residence, holding a large pizza box. They ring the doorbell, and a woman answers, looking surprised to find police at her doorstep. "How are you doing? Brandy?" one of the officers asks. "Yes," she responds, still puzzled. "So, your GrubHub (an American food delivery company) guy got arrested, so we still delivered your pizza," the officer explains. The customer appears stunned and unsure how to respond. The officer then adds lightheartedly, "It should still be warm." The woman smiles and thanks the officers for the pizza. In the caption of the video, the police department wrote, "When a delivery driver was arrested during a traffic stop, our officers made sure the pizza still got to the customer. The order was Hot-N-Ready, and the suspect was Caught-N-Steady. We're committed to serving our community 24/7-whether it's safety or pizza delivery!"

Another commented, "Patrol Police Officers are such nice young guys. They come up with great ways to serve their communities."

Video: Police Deliver Pizza After Arresting Delivery Agent For ‘Reckless Driving'

Last Updated: Instead of letting the food go to waste, officers took it upon themselves to deliver the pizza to the customer. Two police officers in the U.S. are winning hearts online after stepping in to complete a pizza delivery on the Fourth of July. A Grubhub driver was arrested for reckless driving while en route to drop off an order. But instead of letting the food go to waste, officers from the Tempe Police Department took it upon themselves to deliver the pizza to the customer. A video shared by the police shows the driver's arrest, but what really grabbed people's attention was the surprised reaction of the customer receiving the pizza. The police department said they're committed towards helping the community anytime, day or night, and delivering the pizza was part of that promise. In the video shared by the Tempe Police Department on X (Formerly Twitter), it first shows the moment when the delivery driver was getting arrested. Later in the clip, two police officers are seen carrying the pizza and walking up to the customer's door. They ring the bell, and when the woman opens the door, one of the officers politely tells her, 'Brandy? So your GrubHub guy got arrested, so still deliver your pizza. It still should be warm." The woman replies, 'I really appreciate the pizza. Thank you very very much. I appreciate it." In the caption, the department wrote, 'When a delivery driver was arrested during a traffic stop, our officers made sure the pizza still got to the customer. The order was Hot-N-Ready and the suspect was Caught-N-Steady. We're committed to serving our community 24/7, whether it's safety or pizza delivery." Another shared, 'I would do the same (if I was a beat cop) just to get the laugh & make the shift interesting (beyond the shitty interesting)." 'Pretty darn nice of the officers to deliver the food. Unfortunately, most of the time people meet the police it's during a not great time in their life or for a speeding ticket. Showing the human side is a nice touch," a comment read. An individual stated, 'I would be so confused as well if that was my order." Another mentioned, 'This is legit hilarious, protect and serve done right." One more added, 'Tempe Police assisted Arizona Faithful Network partner heat relief centre, Desert Palm Church of Christ. A community member had a medical emergency and left their dog. Tempe Police offered to go to the hospital to get information on who can receive the dog. That's heartwarming." Officials told Fox News that the delivery driver was arrested for reckless driving and taking part in street racing. view comments First Published: July 14, 2025, 12:23 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Young son films as dad is fatally shot in road rage incident, Arizona cops say

A young boy filmed his father as he was fatally shot in a road rage incident in Arizona, police said. Dustin Jackson, 46, was arrested July 1 on charges of first-degree murder and drive-by-shooting in the death of the motorist, the Tempe Police Department said in a probable cause statement and Arizona's Family reported. The man killed was identified as Steven Bevan, 29, by multiple news outlets. Jackson told police he was driving behind Bevan, who was stopped at a green light, so he honked his horn, authorities said in court documents. He said Bevan didn't move until the light later turned green again, then both men drove through the light and got into different lanes, police said. Police confirmed from video surveillance footage that Bevan swerved in front of Jackson's truck and stopped, according to the documents. Bevan then got out of his vehicle and approached Jackson's GMC Sierra pickup truck, police said. Video footage from one of Bevan's young sons shows his dad throw his hands up, then put them back at his side as he approaches Jackson's truck, police said. Jackson opens his door and shoots him in the chest while his 6-year-old daughter was inside the truck, police said. Bevan was about 5 feet from Jackson's vehicle when he was shot, police said. Bevan was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead at 12:36 p.m. His two sons, aged 8 and 9, were in his vehicle and were later picked up by their mother, police said. Jackson told police he 'was in fear for his life and daughter's life,' according to the documents. Authorities said they conducted a search warrant on Bevan's vehicle and didn't find any weapons. Police also said there was a size difference between the two men. Jackson is 6 feet, 8 inches tall, and Bevan was 5 feet, 7 inches tall, authorities said. Jackson lives in Phoenix and is a Marine Corps veteran, police said. His bail was set at $1 million.
