Now for something on the lighter side.
You may or may not have heard of ‘The Jerky Boys.’ The comedy duo made a series of albums in the 90’s and early 2000’s in which they prank called various businesses and individuals. One of those calls was entitled “Terrorist Pizza” and featured an angry Islamic jihadist character who was outraged because a pizza he had “purchased” caused his family to vomit. Here’s the bit with some clever visuals created by a Youtube contributor:
Now here’s the real life incident:
Pizzeria Owner Targeted In Slice Fusillade
MARCH 25–The owner of a Florida pizzeria was pelted with multiple slices of pizza thrown by a female patron who was “unsatisfied with the service” at the victim’s eatery, police report.
Responding to a 911 call Friday afternoon, cops found Fatos Cala, the 44-year-old proprietor of Olivia’s Pizza, with his “chest area and head…covered in tomato sauce.” On the floor of the New Port Richey pizza place, police added, were “several slices of cheese pizza.”
Better that than having her arrive with a suicide vest. There would have been more than just pizza covering the floor. Either way, this was an act of terrorism. Instead of slinging lead from her AK-47, she hurled pizza downrange.
A subsequent investigation determined that the pizza slices that struck Cala were thrown by Syeda Saleem, a 28-year-old who lives about six miles from the pizzeria. Saleem, who was in the restaurant with her son, “admitted to throwing the pizza at the victim because she was unsatisfied with the service,” according to a criminal complaint.
“You cannot treat my people like this!”
Saleem had left the pizzeria before police arrived, but Cala had copied down her license plate number, which led police to her residence.
Just like in ‘Terrorist Pizza.’ “Two hours later my kid, my wife, we all start throwing up everywhere. We are dying we are throwing up!”
Saleem told cops that her child threw up upon eating pizza served to them by Cala, claiming that “the cheese was spoiled.” When she attempted to return the pizza, Saleem said, Cala “began to yell racial slurs at her and told her to go back to her country.”
Spoiled cheese, huh? Maybe she should have ordered something from the Allah carte menu?
At that point, Saleem said, she “shoved the pizza through the window and the pizza hit him because he was standing in her way.”
Ah! She tried to play the old hate crime hoax but the cops weren’t buying it.
Pictured above, Saleem was arrested on a misdemeanor battery charge and booked into the Pasco County jail. She was released on $500 bond after spending a few hours in custody.
While she did not “blow the place up” or make the threats of, “I kill you,” which were featured in ‘Terrorist Pizza,’ she did commit a crime and will now be tried and hopefully punished for it.
Allah’s well that ends well.
