WEST VIRGINIA KNIFE AND GUN CLUB - "Pops, Don't Make Me Kill You"

(06/25/2004)
"POPS, DON'T MAKE ME KILL YOU" - William Douds, a 70-year-old Charleston cab driver, was robbed at knifepoint early yesterday on the West Side. He was dispatched to pick up a man and a woman about 3:45 a.m. near a Save-A-Lot store.

The driver asked where they wanted to go, and the woman gave an address in Teays Valley, a long distance trip. When Douds asked to see their money for the fare, the man put a small knife to Douds neck and demanded money and the keys to the cab.

The suspect said, "Pops, don't make me kill you," after which he turned over about $100 in cash and the ignition key for his cab.
