GrubHub customer left shocked after police officers arrest pizza delivery man
Footage shared by the Tempe Police Department shows two cops helped make sure the customer got her dinner.
Around 10pm on July The Fourth, police pulled over and handcuffed a man they said was racing and recklessly driving.
'So, your GrubHub guy got arrested, so, still delivered your pizza.'
As he explained the unusual situation, Brandy's mouth dropped open in disbelief and she let out a gasp.
'Well, I really appreciate the pizza, thank you very, very, much!' she responded while chuckling.
'It still should be warm,' the second officer chimed in. Based on video timestamps, only about 15 minutes had passed from the time the driver was arrested and the pizza arrived at her apartment.
The department proudly shared video from the unusual ordeal on Saturday, writing: 'When a delivery driver was arrested during a traffic stop, our officers made sure the pizza still got to the customer.
'The order was Hot-N-Ready, and the suspect was Caught-N-Steady.
'We're committed to serving our community 24/7 - whether it's safety or pizza delivery!'
On social media, some viewers seemed just as shocked as Brandy was with the officers' delivery decision - which was certainly outside their job description.
'I would be so confused as well if that was my order,' someone wrote on X, with another adding 'This is legit...protect and serve done right.'
A department spokesperson told the Daily Mail on Sunday night he did not have the arrested driver's name or exact charges available.

Report: Blackstone executive identified as victim in NYC shooting
The shooting took place at a skyscraper that is home to the headquarters of both the NFL and Blackstone, one of the world's largest investment firms, as well as other tenants. After spraying bullets in the lobby, the gunman took the elevator to the 33rd floor, where real-estate management firm Rudin Management is based, and killed another person before turning the gun on himself. The Rudin family - a New York real estate dynasty - owns the building. 'We lost four souls to another senseless act of gun violence,' said Mayor Eric Adams . The gunman had a 'documented mental health history,' according to Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch, but his motive was still unknown. The rampage happened at the end of the workday in the same part of Manhattan where the chief executive of UnitedHealthcare was gunned down outside a hotel late last year. Tamura's motive for the massacre remains unclear as of Tuesday morning. Blackstone employees shared messages during the rampage saying there was a shooter in the lobby and warning not to go downstairs, an employee told the WSJ. Some started barricading themselves in their offices and bathrooms. One of those injured is an NFL employee, commissioner Roger Goodell said in a letter to staff. The employee was reportedly seriously injured but is in stable condition at the hospital. Surveillance video showed the man exiting a double-parked BMW just before 6.30pm carrying an M4 rifle, then marching across a public plaza into the building. Then, he started firing. Slain NYPD officer Islam (pictured), 36, was an immigrant from Bangladesh who had served as a police officer in New York City for 3 1/2 years, Tisch said at a news conference. He was one of two NYPD officers working paid detail at the building. 'He was doing the job that we asked him to do. He put himself in harm's way. He made the ultimate sacrifice,' Tisch said. 'He died as he lived. A hero.' Tisch said an initial investigation shows the gunman's vehicle traveled across the country, passing through Colorado on July 26, then Nebraska and Iowa on July 27. The car was in Columbia, New Jersey, as recently as 4.24pm Monday. He drove into New York City shortly thereafter, she said.

CNN anchor Erin Burnett blasted for describing NYC shooter as 'possibly white'
CNN anchor Erin Burnett is facing scrutiny after describing the gunman who killed four people in Midtown Manhattan overnight as 'possibly white' despite surveillance footage showing he was not. Burnett angered some on social media on Monday night after describing gunman Shane Tamura, 27, from footage shared by authorities showing him holding an AR-15. Tamura was seen walking into the 345 Park Avenue skyscraper with 'sunglasses, mustache, male, possibly white' Burnett and her co-anchor said. Images of Tamura strolling into the scene with the gun by his waist circulated widely across social media, with many remarking that he had a darker complexion that Burnett's description. Although some said that the shooter's race was 'irrelevant', others said Burnett was premature in her assessment live on the air. It comes as authorities said that Tamura, from Nevada, killed four people in a horror spree on Monday before turning the gun on himself. Investigators said that it is possible he was targeting the National Football League, which is located at 345 Park Avenue. He was found with a letter on his body indicating he had grievances with the NFL and its handling of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) after the rampage. In the note he railed against the NFL and pleaded for his brain to be studied. 'Terry Long football gave me CTE and it caused me to drink a gallon of antifreeze,' Tamura wrote, according to CNN. 'You can't go against the NFL, they'll squash you.' The shooter was referring to former Pittsburgh Steeler Terry Long, who committed suicide by drinking antifreeze in 2006 after suffering from CTE. 'Study my brain please I'm sorry Tell Rick I'm sorry for everything,' the note read. Tamura killed three people in the lobby of the skyscraper - NYPD officer Didarul Islam, a 36 year-old father of two, as well as a second unnamed security guard who tried to take cover behind a security desk, as well as an undentified woman who tried to hide behind a lobby pillar. A third man was shot and critically-injured in the lobby. Tamura then called an elevator and rode to building management firm Rudin's 33rd floor offices where he shot his fourth victim - whose identity has not been released. Tamura subsequently ended the massacre by taking his own life.
