Over the past month at least eight rideshare drivers in Chicago have been targeted by armed robbers, and at least two of them have been killed on the city’s west side. The most recent incident took place on Wednesday night just after 10 p.m. when a 51-year-old driver was approached by three men as he was stopped after dropping off a passenger. The men demanded the driver’s wallet, and when he refused one of them opened fire at point-blank range, striking him in the chest.
