A 74-year-old ride-hailing driver in Arizona is dead after authorities say a female passenger ran him over multiple times with his own car in Phoenix.

The passenger, Jordan Spalding, 31, is charged with second-degree murder, according to court documents. Spalding’s bond was set at $1 million.

Law enforcement responded to a crash involving a pedestrian just after 5 p.m. Tuesday, and they found Samuel Webster with severe injuries, according to a report from affiliate FOX 10 Phoenix.
