A Hudson man working as a Lyft ride-share driver was shot and killed Sunday at an Akron intersection.
Kristopher Roukey, 48, of Hudson, was shot multiple times near the intersection of East Market Street and Buchtel Avenue by a man walking on the street. The accused shooter was arrested at noon Monday at a home a short distance away.
Callers to 911 describe a man who was shot sitting alone in the driver's side of a vehicle, and a shooter walking away from the scene, according to recordings released by police.
Akron police said it's been determined Roukey was a Lyft driver, but it's unknown how his work was related to the shooting.
Officers responded to reports of a shooting at the intersection at 4:55 p.m Sunday. Police said Roukey was unresponsive and had been shot several times.
He was taken to Summa Akron City Hospital, which is near where the shooting happened. He died in the hospital about 5:30 p.m.
According to a news release from the U.S. Marshal of Northern Ohio's office, Kahlyl Powe, 23, is accused of fatally shooting Roukey.
Powe was quickly identified as a suspect by Akron detectives, according to the news release. Officers and the Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive's Task Force were able to find and arrest him in the 500 block of Buchtel Avenue, just blocks away from where the shooting happened.
A firearm also was recovered during Powe's arrest, according to the news release. He is charged with murder, according to the news release.
Just to add a little more background... Hudson is a great school district in Summit County - same county as Akron. Though on the well to do side it is possible to afford a mortgage there if you work hard. Many middle class people do to send their to kids to school there.
Hudson is in Akron’s orbit, maybe more so than Cleveland’s.
My understanding is that the Tribe let him go because, you know, COVID.
The guy was just trying to keep the roof over his family’s head.
Horrible. Prayers for this poor man’s family and for our nation.
Another nazi wannabe.

From recent events, it would seem black folks have it out for Asians too for some reason. That disgusts me and anyone convicted of that should be charged to the fullest extent of the law, including terrorism. But of course we know they won’t be charged with much of anything at all.
He doesn’t look like a happy person.
Best professions now are those with minimal contact with other people.
It has to be dealt with before they are teens.
Its too late if they are teens.
so many non whites have pulled their act together and become civilized, socialized, educated and important members of society....I feel bad for them for this animal streak in their ranks...
about Lyft drivers or Uber drivers...most people work this as their 2nd job to bring in a little extra money....and for that effort, this is what they get.....
disgusted..
A wife left without a husband and two young people who will never see their father again. I don't care if it sounds racist.Blacks like this dirt bag are garbage. I know they're are plenty of hard working, law abiding blacks. I've worked with and do work with lots of them.
But this. Feral thugs with no redeeming value(save possibly as an organ donor) who have no right to life for the lives they have so callously taken and the broken hearts and lives they leave behind.
Where are the riots, er, protests in honor of this dear man?
Ouch. As insane as things are now, it might be close to the truth.

Yes. I hope I didn't give the racist bastards any ideas.
OHIO PING!
Please let me know if you want on or off the Ohio Ping list.
