SOUTH PORTLAND – Police are investigating the armed robbery of a pizza delivery driver Saturday night near the Maine Mall.

According to police, the driver met with an “alleged customer” in front of a building at the Olde English Village Apartments at 499 Westbrook St. in South Portland at around 10 p.m. While speaking with the customer, two unidentified men approached from a corner of the building and threatened the delivery driver. One was armed with a knife, and the other a handgun. They demanded the victim give them his money, which he did. The two suspects left on foot in the direction of Westbrook Street with a small amount of cash and the pizza.
