Rifle pointed at pizza delivery driver

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Wilmington Police say officers responded to a ShotSpotter alert Friday night when a Domino’s delivery driver drove up to a scene at 11th and Hall Streets, and said he had a rifle pointed at him.

The driver said the resident at 1520 Corbett St. pointed the gun at him, so officers cleared that home. While investigators were there, they noticed marijuana plants in plain sight and obtained a search warrant.

They confiscated several marijuana plants. They also arrested Jason Ray Oxendine Jr, 29, for assault by pointing a gun. Investigators say it does not appear Oxendine fired any shots, but a shell casing was found near 11th Street.
