"A plainclothes officer drove an unmarked police car with a pizzeria sign mounted on its roof."

I can spot most unmarked police cars a mile away.
Maybe the perps didn't notice the black pushbar ;)

:headscratch The evidence actually given in the article just says that the suspects ordered a pizza and answered the door with a BB gun tucked in one of their waistbands. I'd be a bit worried if that constituted robbery in RI.

I really hope they weren't stupid enough to try and commit multiple robberies from the front-door of their residence.

Probably had an eyewitness from prior robberies, they just needed to find where they lived.

Where does it say they answered a door?

I think the usual MO is for the BGs to give the address for an unoccupied house or vacant lot & then wait outside for the pizza delivery guy to show up.

In El Paso there are cars with out the push bars, there are also a few seized vehicles with EPPD marked on the doors with internal light bars they use for traffic stops, those guys are hard to spot unless they are parked in the median :biggrinjester:

Hah! You're right, that was an assumption on my part and not stated in the article.
