A Troy man charged with the Oct. 21 robbery of a Dominos Pizza driver pleaded guilty last week in Miami County Common Pleas Court.

Danny Pearson, 47, was accused of robbing a pizza deliveryman of $20 and a pizza when the delivery driver went to a West Franklin Street house. The driver told police he saw a man come around the house as he approached. The man showed him what the driver believed to be a gun and asked for all of his money.

The driver said he complied and started to back away when the robber asked for one of the pizzas, too.

Police reported the call for the pizza was made on Pearson’s phone. When they went to the house where they were told Pearson was staying, police found pizza in the refrigerator and the empty box in the trash. Pearson told investigators he did not have a gun,but instead placed a stick in the waistband of his pants to make it appear there was a gun, according to reports.

In court March 8. Pearson’s guilty plea was accepted and sentencing scheduled April 18.
