One suspect ordered the delivery person to drop the food and demanded money. The suspect then showed a firearm in his waistband and again demanded money, the sheriff’s office said.

The suspects then grabbed the food and fled the area. In responding to the scene, sheriff’s deputies found the food and a replica pellet gun that had been discarded.
