The driver also gave Isom $20.

The second incident which occurred on Saturday, Dec. 7 at 11:20 p.m. in the 2800 block of Williamsburg Drive. The delivery driver was again accosted by Isom who pointed a gun at the driver and demanded the pizza and cash. The driver gave him the pizza and $20.

In both cases, Isom’s appearance matched the description with the person of interest as he wore a dark clothing, which includes a black neck gaiter that partially covered his face.
