On Friday, July 10, the owner of a pizza shop in Greenwood, Delaware was in the process of closing up when a man approached, pulled out a machete, and demanded money.

The owner chose to fight back with the only “weapon” around him… pizza. That’s right, he threw a hot pizza at the would-be robber.

Amazingly, it worked. For some reason, the machete wielding man was scared off by the flying pizza and ran out of the shop.

Police are currently trying to track him down.
