May 13, 2009 (United Press International) -- A pizza driver in Providence, R.I., said he and his wife were able to capture one of the three men who beat and robbed him in a recent incident.
Domino's Pizza driver Ceasar Lopez said four days after he was savagely beaten by three robbers, he became convinced one of his assailants was lounging outside a Providence eatery and gave chase, the Providence (R.I.) Journal said Wednesday.
As Lopez, still suffering from injuries from the robbery, chased the suspect Sunday, his wife, Maria Reyes, followed the pair in their car.
Eventually the couple caught the fleeing man, identified as 20-year-old Michael Long, and held him until police arrived on scene. Long was arrested and charged with first-degree robbery and conspiracy.
Police told the Journal Long allegedly identified two additional suspects in last Wednesday's robbery and assault of Lopez. Those suspects, who face charges identical to those against Long, were identified as Elvin Delacruz, 25, and Markus Matthews, 20.
