In the late hours of a weekend in March 2010, police responding to a report of a car crash at 61st and Ludlow streets in West Philadelphia found a black-and-white taxi that had struck a pole. The driver, 50-year-old taxi driver Aliou Diallo of Lindbergh Boulevard, had a gunshot wound to the back of his head and had lost control of the vehicle. He was taken to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and was pronounced dead at 3:38 p.m. that day.

Investigators reported cash was left in the taxi, prompting questions about motive and leading some to doubt robbery as the primary reason for the attack. The killing was later cited among a number of unsolved homicides in Philadelphia involving Black victims.

Did anyone in the community know Diallo’s routes, passengers, or regular contacts who might have information about what happened that night?
