Pregnant woman stabbed 14 times in front of young daughter over bad pizza delivery tip: deputies

A pizza delivery driver in Florida is facing charges after deputies say she violently attacked a pregnant woman over dissatisfaction with the tip amount. 

According to a press release from the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office, 22-year-old Brianna Alvelo, of Kissimmee, was arrested in connection to Monday’s attack and is facing charges of attempted murder, kidnapping, home invasion and aggravated assault. 

On Thursday, FOX 35 News obtained an arrest affidavit with more details about the attack and that Alvelo is now also facing a murder charge.

The report stated that the victim was in the motel room with her boyfriend and her 5-year-old daughter, celebrating his birthday, when the stabbing occurred, just after 11:45 pm, after they ordered food from a nearby Marco’s Pizza.

When the pizza was delivered, the report stated that the victim attempted to pay for the $33.10 order with a $50 bill and asked for change.

Alvelo then reportedly told the victim that “they don’t provide change,” prompting the victim to ask for her money back and search for smaller bills.

The victim eventually paid for the order and reportedly gave Alvelo a $2 tip, at which time she told investigators that Alvelo “rolled her eyes and walked away without saying anything.”

Later in the evening, after the victim’s boyfriend and daughter were asleep, officials said Avelo returned to the victim’s motel room with an unknown male suspect, who was armed with a firearm, and forced their way into the room. 

After pointing the gun at the victim and her daughter, the male allegedly forced the victim’s boyfriend into the bathroom, where investigators say he smashed the boyfriend’s phone as Alvelo began rummaging through the victim’s things.

Alvelo, who was armed with a knife, began attacking one of the victims, officials said. The victim was stabbed multiple times, and Alvelo stopped stabbing the victim when the male suspect yelled it was time to go, investigators said, adding the victim believed Alvelo was “trying to kill her.”

Investigators said the victim was stabbed 14 times, underwent surgery for a punctured lung and learned at the hospital that she was a few weeks pregnant.

The victim was transported to the hospital and is currently in stable condition, officials said.

On Wednesday, News 6 received a statement from a Marco’s Pizza spokesperson following Alvelo’s arrest.

“We are deeply saddened by the tragic incident that occurred. The local owner and his team are fully cooperating with local authorities, who have launched an investigation into the matter. The safety and well-being of customers and team members are always our top priority, and we are taking this incident very seriously,” the spokesperson said. 

Alvelo is being held in the Osceola County jail without bond.

Deputies are working to identify the male suspect and are urging anyone with information to contact Crimeline at 800-423-8477.

Florida teens in custody after 14-year-old girl found shot to death, burnt: sheriff

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Two teen boys in Florida are accused of fatally shooting a 14-year-old girl and setting her on fire along a wooded walking trail last week in what authorities are calling a “horrific” killing.

Santa Rosa County Sheriff Bob Johnson told reporters Thursday that the body has been identified as Danika Troy. He said Danika’s mother reported her as a runaway on Monday.

“Unbeknownst to the mother, Danika was murdered the previous night,” Johnson said.

A passerby discovered Danika’s body along a wooded area off Kimberly Road in Pace, a town about 16 miles northeast of Pensacola, and called 911, Johnson said.

Investigators quickly identified the suspects as 14-year-old Kimahri Blevins and 16-year-old Gabriel Williams and took them into custody.

“This is where it gets really horrific,” Johnson said.

Williams allegedly stole his mother’s handgun and shot Danika.

“It’s bad enough you kill a 14-year-old. You’re 14. You’re 16,” Johnson said. “Shoot her multiple times, and then they set her on fire.”

Johnson said investigators are still working to determine a motive.

“They have been interviewed, but the motive that they’re giving doesn’t fit the forensics or any facts of the case, so we don’t have a legit motive,” he told reporters.

Blevins and Williams supposedly knew the victim from school, according to Johnson. He believed the two teens have had previous “run-ins” with law enforcement, though he could not immediately say if they had earlier arrests.

Blevins and Williams are being held at the Department of Juvenile Justice on premeditated first-degree murder charges. 

“You don’t want to go out and see a burnt child with bullet holes,” Johnson said. “That’s not something you sign up for.”

Johnson said no parents have been charged at this time, though investigators are “looking into it.”

The sheriff’s office is working with the State Attorney to charge both teens as adults.

“If you do an adult crime, you gotta do adult time,” Johnson said.

Florida college student who allegedly shipped 1,500 rounds of ammo to dorm had AR-15 under bed

A Florida college student who allegedly ordered 1,500 rounds of ammunition to his dorm room also had a semi-automatic rifle under his bed, according to authorities.

Constantine Demetriades, a 21-year-old senior at Rollins College, was arrested by Winter Park police on Wednesday and charged with possession of a weapon on school property after the ammunition order was reported to police by the school’s assistant campus safety director, according to an arrest affidavit, WKMG reported.

After the purchase was flagged, the assistant safety director searched Demetriades’ dorm and allegedly discovered an unloaded AR-15 under his bed inside an unsecured black carrying case with one loaded magazine and five empty magazines, as well as a tactical vest, knives, a black security vest and ear protection.

Demetriades, who said he likes to shoot as a hobby, told police he had the rifle on school property because he had recently returned from a Thanksgiving trip to New Jersey, where he said the guns were purchased and registered legally, according to the affidavit.

He said he did not have ill intentions and that he usually stores the firearm at a friend’s home off school property, the affidavit stated. He also said he only brought the gun to campus on one other occasion.

The college said in a statement obtained by Fox News Digital that he is banned from campus until the situation is resolved, adding that an internal investigation has been opened.

Marjorie Taylor Greene spars with ’60 Minutes’ host over ‘accusatory’ questions

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., briefly sparred with “60 Minutes” host Lesley Stahl over what she claimed was “accusatory” behavior from the journalist.

Greene gave her first sit-down interview with Stahl since announcing her resignation from Congress last month. During the segment, Stahl and Greene spoke about the Georgia lawmaker’s apology for taking part in “toxic politics.”

“I would like to say humbly, I‘m sorry for taking part in the toxic politics,” Greene told CNN in November. “It’s very bad for our country, and it’s been something I’ve thought about a lot, especially since Charlie Kirk was assassinated, is that we, I’m only responsible for myself and my own words and actions, and I am committed, and I’ve been working on this a lot lately to put down the knives in politics.”

“But you contributed to that,” Stahl asked Greene Sunday. “You. You, you were out there pounding, insulting people.”

Greene pushed back, claiming that Stahl had contributed to toxic politics herself.

“You’re accusatory, just like you did just then,” Greene said.

“I know you’re accusing me, but I’m smiling,” Stahl responded.

“You’re accusing me,” Greene said. “But we don’t have to accuse one another.”

The two continued to go back and forth, with Greene repeatedly insisting that Stahl should also acknowledge her own contribution to toxic politics.

“I don’t insult people,” Stahl said.

“You just, you do in the way you question,” Greene said. “And you are, you’re accusing me right now.”

Fox News Digital reached out to CBS News for comment. 

Greene previously sat down with Stahl in April 2023, when the two had a fiery exchange over the congresswoman’s claim that Democrats are the “party of pedophiles.”

“Democrats support — even Joe Biden, the president himself — supports children being sexualized and having transgender surgeries. Sexualizing children is what pedophiles do to children,” Greene said.

“Wow,” Stahl reacted.

Greene shocked the political landscape last month when she revealed she would leave Congress Jan. 5. Many believe her abrupt exit was the result of her soured relationship with President Donald Trump.
