A Florida Uber driver shot and killed a man who was chasing his car with a pickup truck and threatened him, authorities said Wednesday. Jason Boek, 34, was fatally shot at around 2:20 a.m. Tuesday morning after leaving a bar in Dundee, Florida, and chasing Uber driver Robert Westlake, 38, in his pickup truck, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said at a news conference Wednesday.
quote:
Boek apparently saw his girlfriend and a bartender help another woman into an Uber and mistakenly thought his girlfriend had gotten into the car, Judd said. Boek became enraged and sent his girlfriend, who was still at the bar, a series of text messages, Judd said.
quote:
"I say something?" Westlake asks. "You know I got a pistol?" Boek responds, approaching Westlake's car while holding his cell phone like a gun. "You want me to f---ing shoot you?" A gunshot is then heard and Westlake and the passenger separately exclaim "Oh my God!"

Looks like a clean shoot. Why the frick do you pretend to have a pistol when you don’t? It’s like suicide

You can tell his family must be white trash if they are trying to blame the Uber driver. Obviously you never want a love one to die but if my brother did that as upset as I’d be I wouldn’t blame the Uber driver because I would have done the same thing.

Agreed. Sadly, the Uber driver will likely lose his job over it.

Justifiable homicide. Case closed.

They also insisted the Uber driver had time to leave the scene instead of shooting.
bullshite. He was claiming to have a gun and threatening to shoot him and was already almost to the car. I feel for the family, but the Uber driver had almost no time to react and made the best decision he could with the information he had.

In the movie this quote will be punched up and not nearly as awesome.

FIFY
I had a friend who had bad road rage and we always told him he would end up getting hurt one day with his antics. He ended up getting 2 in the chest with his 2 year old in the car because he chose to chase a guy down to a gas station and walk up to his vehicle with a tire iron in his hand. I have sympathy, but not as much as I should.

Why is it none of these so called journalists list his criminal record offenses?
