The employee of the Get-A-Cab taxi company, told authorities that at 3:26 a.m. Saturday, two males and a female flagged him at the corner of Broad and Wharton streets, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Upon taking them to 28th and Tasker streets, the motorist had guns pointed at him, with the lead offender telling him to give him his money.
The gun-wielders each fired a shot at the victim, with one bullet hitting him in the right arm. He continued to drive with the criminals in the car before crashing into several parked vehicles on the 2300 block of Morris Street. The first offender fled in an unknown direction and the backseat passengers took off westbound on Morris Street then northbound on 24th Street.
