Rochester, N.Y. — A man faces charges after a taxi cab driver was shot to death early Monday.
David Porter , 36, is arraigned Wednesday, April 24, 2024, in Rochester City Court for the murder of taxi cab driver David Treese , 45, two days earlier. Police said David Porter , 36, pistol-whipped, shot and killed David Treese , 45, during a robbery on the city's northeast side.
When he arrived, David Porter, 36, allegedly climbed into the cab with a gun and began to pistol-whip Treese and demand money. The pistol-whipping continued until the cab reached Bay Street, where Treese stumbled out of the car, collapsed on the sidewalk and died, according to police. Officers responded to Central Park around 3:20 a.m. after receiving a 911 call about the crash. About an hour later, a passerby reported an unresponsive man on Bay Street — later identified as Treese.
