Howard County police reported that a pizza deliveryman was robbed in front of an Ellicott City apartment building Tuesday by an armed man who had on a ski mask and was wearing plastic garbage bags around his torso and legs.
Police said the masked man approached the Papa John's Pizza deliveryman, whom they did not identify, as he left the apartment building in the 8900 block of Town and Country Blvd. about 11 p.m.
The robber forced the deliveryman to lie on the ground and took an unspecified amount of cash from his pockets. The robber ran toward the Heartlands community, which is next to the apartment complex, police said.
