Fox News is going to do a special tonight on the Pizza bomber robber who was killed 2 years ago when  bomb shackled around his neck exploded after he was supposedly sent off on a pizza delivery run.


What do you think happened?

That was a crazy ass story

Basically a guy goes to deliver a pizza to a odd address in a remote area.  He gets there and is robbed/taken hostage.  The robber then puts some sort of collar around the pizza guy that is a bomb, and tells him to rob a bank or something for him.  Any attempts to run off or call police and he'll blow up the bomb.

I think he robbed the bank and when police cornered him, the bomb was detonated.

There's an article up on CrimeTV's website; mostly speculation, and only obliquely refers to the guy in the freezer that the Fox promo referred to.

I have a video of it.  Found it floating around on Ogrish.com.  I tried hosting it on putfile.com, but their limit is 10 megs.  The vid is 14.8megs.  Any ideas on how to share this?   Let me know.

I've uploaded the file here.... it might work.

I've also created a Bit Torrent for it.  This is my first time making a torrent, so it might not work

Wonder if Fox will replay it, I meant to catch that show and missed it.
It came on 10pm Eastern, 9pm Central.  It'll replay at 1am Eastern, 12am Central (I think)


Gloftoe that tripped me out. I thought I had blacked out behind the keyboard for a second.

What type of explosives were used in the vest?

Commercial or homemade?

It was a collar. Not a vest.

I was down the street buying a pair of shoes the day that happened.

It was an explosive collar. For a while there was speculation that the pizza guy was responsible, but who would lock an explosive collar on themselves then commit suicide?

I'd like to know what the deal was with that... I'll probably miss it, so I'll give this thread a tag so I can get a synopsis later.
