Belgian man arrested after robbing pizza delivery riders at gunpoint in Aarschot

Friday, 17 April 2026, 10:17 · 1 min read

A 22-year-old man from Aarschot (a town in the Flemish Brabant province of Belgium) has been arrested after robbing two pizza delivery couriers at gunpoint on consecutive days in April. The suspect placed food orders on 9 and 10 April and, upon the couriers' arrival, threatened them with a firearm — stealing €50 from the first courier while failing to take anything from the second. A police search of his home uncovered rifles, a 3D-printed weapon with ammunition, multiple types of drugs, and three electric scooters, though the firearm used in the robberies was not found; the man confessed to acting alone and appeared before an examining magistrate to determine whether he will remain in custody pending trial.
