Richmond: Mob of Blacks Attack White Uber Driver

Ronald Young, the lead attacker.

I didn’t know that white Uber drivers even existed.

I guess this story highlights why there are so few of them around.

Richmond Police announced the arrest of a man in connection to an assault of an Uber driver in the Fan District on October 28.

Ronald S. Young, 26, of Ridgecliff Road, was charged with robbery in connection to the attack that left a father on disability with even more injuries, police announced on Friday.

“This morning I happily got the news that they made an arrest. That’s good and they’re making progress,” 59-year-old Bradley Johnson said.

Uber driver Johnson was attempting to drive down the 2000 block of West Grace Street at about 2:17 a.m. when he encountered a group of people playing loud music, dancing and blocking the street.

“[Johnson] was attempting to drive through an intersection when he was robbed and assaulted,” a Richmond Police spokesperson said. “[He] was transported to a local hospital with non-life threatening injuries.”
