Come on, I have a family': Pittsburgh Uber driver begged for her life before being killed by rider, police say
An Uber driver and mother of four pleaded with a passenger for her life before he shot and killed her in an attempted robbery this month, according to a criminal complaint and Pennsylvania police.
Calvin Crew, 22, was arrested and charged Feb. 17 with criminal homicide, robbery and tampering with evidence in the death of Christina Spicuzza, 38, who was reported missing by her family six days earlier after she did not return home following a shift of Uber fares.
When Spicuzza picked up Crew as a passenger for an Uber ride on the night of Feb. 10, he pulled a gun on her, according to a criminal complaint filed in Pittsburgh Municipal Court.
In dashcam footage, Spicuzza tells her assailant, "Come on, I have a family ... I'm begging you, I have four kids," according to the complaint.
