Third Cab Driver Killed In Miami-Dade

A cab driver driver has a sixty-six percent chance over others on the job of being killed in Miami-Dade

NW MIAMI DADE (CBS4) ― Detectives are investigating the shooting of a cab driver who died early Wednesday morning at NW 45th St. and 33rd Ave. in Miami-Dade after then crashing into a road sign, and downed several power lines in the neighborhood.

As Florida Power and Light work crews repaired the electrical lines, homicide detectives said they were probing the shooting as a possible robbery.

In the neighborhood, Ethel Johnson, whose son drives a cab, told CBS4 Reporter Gary Nelson, "Every day he leaves here, I say a prayer."
 
Back in June, a cab driver was gunned down inside his car in North Miami, marking the second time a cabbie was killed. 

Anyone with information regarding this incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS (8477).
