Benjamin Elder, 46, was found dead in his taxi in the early morning hours of April 20, 2008. The Germantown Cab Co. driver was discovered in the driver’s seat on the 1800 block of North 20th Street in Philadelphia with a fatal gunshot wound to the right side of his head and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police had no suspects in custody and reported very few leads in the immediate aftermath. Family and friends described Elder as well-liked and diligent, and his killing occurred amid a weekend of violence that left investigators with little to go on. The case remains unsolved and open.

Does anyone have information about Benjamin Elder, his work routes that night, or that stretch of North 20th Street in April 2008?
