Uber driver pulls gun, fatally shot, sheriff says
A license plate reader in Polk County, Florida led deputies to a suspect with an outstanding probation violation warrant before a confrontation ended in a fatal shooting, according to Sheriff Grady Judd. Deputies said they found 46-year-old Larry Riles in a dark blue Chevy Captiva parked in front of a Subway near Walbash and Memorial Boulevard. Riles, an Uber driver whose vehicle carried an Uber sign in the windshield, backed into a parking spot to hide his license plate after noticing deputies in the area, according to Judd.
