"Scammers Target Rideshare Drivers: Ohio Man Charged with Murder of Black Uber Driver"

An 81-year-old Ohio man, William Brock, was charged with murder after fatally shooting 61-year-old Black ride-share driver Lo-Letha Hall outside his home, falsely believing she was associated with scammers who had called him. Despite no evidence of threat, Brock shot Hall three times and then called the police, claiming he feared she was getting a gun. Uber confirmed the tragic incident and banned the account that ordered the ride. This case adds to the recent string of unprovoked shootings of Black Americans, highlighting ongoing issues of racism and violence.
