On the morning of June 4, 2019, Luckinson Oruma, a 60-year-old Nigerian emigre and Dorchester resident, was working as a taxi driver in Boston when he was killed in Back Bay. His cab was parked on Huntington Avenue in front of the Colonnade hotel when a fare, later identified as Phillip Foy, asked for a ride to Mansfield. Oruma declined the long-distance trip and an argument followed. Foy pulled Oruma from the driver’s seat and shot him; witnesses say Foy fired additional shots while Oruma lay on the ground.

After the shooting, the attacker took Oruma’s taxi and drove a short distance before abandoning the vehicle and discarding a gun and other items. Witnesses located the suspect a block away, sitting outside a Starbucks and a Shaw’s supermarket, and police arrested him after a brief standoff; he later confessed to the killing. Oruma is remembered by his family as a devoted husband and father who supported five children through college.

Does anyone who lived or worked in Back Bay that morning have information about what they saw or heard?
