“Tucson we need to catch this guy!” tweeted the police, sharing the 20-second footage.
The video shows the woman leaving the restaurant, located at South 12th Avenue and West Ajo Way on the city’s south side, around 3:45 pm. The man standing outside opens the door for the woman as she is exiting and suddenly attacks her and snatchesIDE her pizza pie.
Security at the pizza chain’s ten locations has been beefed up since the incident.
A cop in a Twitter post described the suspect, a regular at the restaurant, as a dark-skinned male, possibly Hispanic, with a wrinkly face standing around 5 feet 6 inches or shorter.
