The driver for a pizza joint in Douglas, Ga., must have looked like an easy mark to Antavious McTear, who allegedly accosted him with a pipe and demanded money during a delivery. But when the driver responded by pulling out a gun, McTear fled the scene in his car.

McTear was later apprehended by law enforcement officers, who promptly deposited him in the Coffee County Jail. The driver was unharmed in the incident.
