A Dominos delivery driver who came face to face with a gun during a robbery last weekend said he’s thankful to be alive but is sad that one of the teens died.

Two teenagers tried to rob David Gerber at gunpoint as he delivered a pizza in Mesquite on Saturday night. One teen fired a warning shot at Gerber, but he was armed too and fired back and killed one of the would-be robbers.

Good for him.

Too bad another Ivy leaguer had to leave us too soon!

That's the second one this week!

Wasn't a damn warning shot. The little punk just had his gun sideways.

No reason for him to be sad about it. He just did his city a favor.

Everyone in his community should chip in and give him a $20 tip.

Every news story, with an armed robber that dies, is a deterrent that may save countless lives.

You have to push the gun when you shoot it to get those extra FPS

Whether he deserved it or not, the average person will probably feel like shite for killing another person.

That said, you're right. Props to him.

He almost assuredly will be fired from Dominos. They make it pretty explicit that you're not allowed to carry a weapon while on the job.

Full disclosure - I delivered pizzas for 3 weeks in college.

ETA: It's possible Dominos has changed the policy. The article makes it seem like he still has a chance to return to work.

I guarantee he's going to get some fat tips if dominos doesn't fire him for carrying a gun in his car.
