An Unusually Hefty Pizza Order Led Authorities To The Final Paris Shooter

It’s getting to the point where prospective criminals and terrorists seriously need to start keeping an eye on the volume of their fast food orders.

First, drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman was sniffed out by Mexican federales because of a suspiciously large taco order, and now a detailed report from Politico indicates that the final Paris shooter Salah Abdeslam was conclusively located in part because a big pizza order alerted Belgian cops to the number of people residing in a suspect home in Brussels.
Basically, the police ascertained that the lone woman who ostensibly lived in the home would not have eaten that quantity of pizza, so they concluded that there must be unexpected company. If cops ever made the same kind of assumptions about the PEDESTRIAN.TV offices, we’d be in serious strife.
Obviously the offending ‘za wasn’t the only indicator that Abdeslam was holed up in the apartment – they also noted his fingerprints on a pane of glass in the area.
No word on whether Menulog delivers fresh slices to the Islamic State.
