Multiple suspects wanted following armed assault on delivery person

Windsor police are looking for four men who allegedly attacked a pizza delivery person late Monday night.

It happened shortly before 11 p.m. near Goyeau Street and Shepherd Street East. Officers learned that a person was delivering a pizza when they were confronted by the four suspects in an alley.

The group demanded everything the victim was carrying, including his vehicle keys. When the victim tried to run, he was assaulted. In the process, a black handgun and bear spray were revealed.

The suspects fled after being confronted by a witness. The victim was treated in hospital for minor injuries.

The first suspect is described as a male, about 6’, with a medium build. He wore black clothing and a face mask.

The other three are described as males, about 5’ 10”, with medium builds. They also wore black clothing and face masks.

Residents and business owners in the area are asked to check security camera footage from late Monday night and contact police if anything unusual is found.
