DENVER: A driver with the ride-sharing service Uber was arrested on Friday for suspicion of first-degree murder after Denver police said he fatally shot a passenger in his vehicle. Michael Andre Hancock, 29, was being held without bond in the Denver County jail pending the formal filing of charges, according to jail records. The Denver Medical Examiner’s Office identified the dead man as Hyun Kim, 45. Uber said in a statement that it was “deeply troubled” by the arrest of Hancock, a contract driver with the company for nearly three years. The driver’s access to the app has been removed, and we will continue working closely with police,” Uber said.
