Terrifying incident in Boston yesterday. Cab driver shot and killed in broad daylight. And this was not in a shady part of town. Driver refused to drive the guy and paid for it with his life.

You can't make this stuff up.

This is so MESSED UP. This guy needs to be put in prison. For the rest of his life. At best...
He asked Oruma to take him to Mansfield, Verner said, but Oruma refused. Mansfield is about 35 miles outside the city.
“You’re gonna move this cab, or I’m gonna move you,” Foy allegedly told Oruma, according to Verner.
When Oruma still refused, Verner said, Foy exited the vehicle and pulled Oruma out of the driver’s seat, shooting him once. As Oruma lay in the street, Foy stood over him and fired multiple times.
