The cops are on the lookout for a gunman who's committing a one-man crimewave against cabtrivers. The armed robbery has robbed six cab drivers at gunpoint in just over a week. Above is the sketch that the police have released and was published by The Daily News.
The most recent attack occurred about 12:50 a.m. Tuesday on W. 16th St., only a few blocks from the first robbery.In each case, the robber hailed a cab, hopped in, flashed a pistol, demanded cash from the cabbie and then fled on foot, authorities said. There have been no injuries.
Cops were investigating whether the gunpoint robbery of a cabbie at Essex and Delancey Sts. on the lower East Side last night was the work of the same crook, sources said.
The police believe the same gunman commiitted an additional robbery late last night. They're asking anyone with additional information to call 800-577-TIPS.

looking like what? Hmmm?
Yay for racism. Let the anti-black "cabbies are right for not picking them up" nonsense begin!
I have to say, I like Gothamist for the content, but I don't read it as much as I used to since the racism and bigotry in the comments are out of control. I stop in for some weekend local news and sure enough, there's this bullshit going on in the comments section. You should do something about it, you are losing readers. (Or at least one reader.)
People that post racist comments (yes I'm talking about you "Ummm") are either 1) so ashamed of their beliefs that the only place they can express them is in private or under the cloak of anonymity, or 2) complete cowards who would never say these things to the face of minorities or anyone else for that matter, or 3) most likely both.
RFD: You forgot 4. Ummm... they are racist. Yes people who post things on the internet are racist. end of story. simple really.
You know, it turned out that those kids were innocent! But there was no big media splash over that...
Whoa! A one man holocaust.
So it seems we have pre-empted the stupid racist talk. Good job y/all. I think all racist mutha-fuckers should be shot.
