#2,391 - Armed guards escort some San Jose - South Bay delivery drivers due to crime "concerns"

Delivery drivers in the South Bay say they're increasingly worried about becoming robbery targets.

It's happening enough that at least one company, Core Mart, is now hiring armed guards to escort its drivers.

NBC Bay Area contacted Core Mart's parent company, but they declined to explain why they're now providing the guards.

San Jose police said they saw a slight increase in the robbery of delivery trucks two years ago, but said they have not seen a spike lately.

Flavio Lopez works for another delivery company and said he wishes he had a guard or at least a second person to help him keep an eye on the merchandise. Lopez hasn’t been robbed, but he has had run-ins downtown.
