"I heard footsteps behind me, and I stopped to turn...," Teresa said.
A strange man grabbed for Teresa's purse...they struggled. The man eventually got the purse and took off.
What followed had Teresa doing a double-take--In a flash, someone was giving chase to the robber.
"He had on a white tunic, a beige leotard, and tights and boots," Teresa explained. The man was also wearing a cape.
"I thought, 'wow, who's that?'"
It was Cameron Evan--Superhero.
"Typically we just deliver some pizzas (dressed like this), and that's about it. But when we run into a situation like this, we're forced to act," Evans explained.
Two other bystanders joined in the chase and eventually knocked the robber down. He got away, but not before giving up the purse.
It turns out, superheroes fit Galactic Pizza's mission. It's a socially conscious business, thus the electric cars to deliver pizzas. And all of the shop's equipment is powered totally by wind.
As the owner puts it:
"Everything that we do in the process of making pizza, we try to have as much good come out of it as possible," the owner said.
Including, making sure the bad guys don't run off with the dough.
"If you're in Uptown, and you're gonna commit a crime, watch out for galactic superheroes," Evans said.
