Anonymous donor hopes to help nab cabbie killer

CENTRAL FALLS — An anonymous donor is offering a $4,000 reward for information leading to the capture of the person who shot and killed a cab driver in Central Falls last year.

Forty-two-year-old Jose Rodriguez was found in his cab in July after he was shot in the head. He died the next day.

The Victim Support Center, which helps families of those who are victims of violent crime, says it’s also helping look for the killer by posting fliers throughout the state.

Center director Sheila Capece says the killing happened in broad daylight, so someone must have seen something.

Central Falls police are urging anyone with information to come forward.
