Did they want the money or a pizza?
I read a news article where a woman held up a delivery guy for the large supreme he was carrying.

Pizza delivery is a surprisingly dangerous job, or not so surprisingly if you stop to consider that it involves driving a vehicle with an illuminated sign indicating that the driver is carrying cash and food, and can be easily lured into ambushes by people placing large orders and asking for the driver to bring change for $100 bills. By far the most heavily armed workplaces I've ever been in have been pizza shops, despite the fact that most of them prohibit their employees from carrying weapons.

Certainly in this case it was clear cut self defense.
