Pizza Hut App Helps Hostage Escape


A great day for the Pizza industry! A woman in Florida was threatened by her boyfriend, who was wielding a knife. There was no way to escape. No where to get help. The boyfriend took her phone and trapped her and her three kids in a house. What is a person to do in this situation? Well, the woman convinced the boyfriend to let her order a pizza. The woman opened up the Pizza Hut app and in the comment section wrote “911 hostage help!”. The Pizza Hut employee taking the order through the app quickly called 911 and the police were able to safely rescue the woman and children. 

Great use of technology!
