Toledo police are seeking information through the Crime Stopper program about several robberies — possibly connected — of pizza delivery drivers near East Manhattan Boulevard and I-280 in North Toledo this month.

Police said four robberies occurred from Nov. 12 through Nov. 18 in which usually more than one person robbed delivery drivers of cash and pizza. The weapons used in the robberies varied from a cup of bleach to a stick to a gun.

The cases included robberies in the 1000 block of Ketcham Avenue on Nov. 12, the 1100 block of Ketcham on Nov. 15, the 1800 block of Ridgewood Avenue on Nov. 17, and again in the 1100 block of Ketcham on Nov. 18.

Anyone with information about the robberies is asked to call Crime Stopper. Callers may remain anonymous and could be eligible for a cash reward.
