Pizza Hut Dough Maker Shot In Restaurant

In October 1988, police were dispatched to the Pizza Hut in Austin, Texas, where a manager had found one of his waitresses unresponsive and in a pool of blood in the bathroom. The victim, who was identified as Nancy DePriest, had been shot in the back of the head.

The Pizza Hut manager told detectives that he arrived at the location around 9:00 a.m., to check on things since he didn’t get an answer when he called several times. A quick look at the crime scene indicated to detectives that this was a robbery. Money was also missing from the drawer.

Nancy DePriest was transported to the hospital, where she hung on for a few hours but later died while on life support. DePriest left behind a husband and a baby girl, according to the Los Angeles Times.

An autopsy report conducted on Nancy DePriest showed that she had also been sexually assaulted. The crime shocked patrons, who remembered Nancy as a happy person who seemed to like people.
