Firefighters deliver pizza after driver is hurt

Those short 30-second "kickers" on NPR's Morning Edition occasionally send us off in search of more of the story than the NPR hosts have time to tell, and today's anecdote of a fire department in upstate New York is clearly one of those times.

Members of the Henrietta Fire Department responded to an accident on Saturday in which a pizza delivery person was hurt and taken away from the scene by ambulance.

But the pizza? What about the pizza?

No worries. The firefighters delivered the pizza.
