AbateHate.com — Kristopher Roukey, age 48, was fatally shot in Akron, Ohio.

Arrested was Kahlyl Powe, 23.

Reports say Roukey, a Lyft ride-share driver, was shot after giving Powe a ride. Apparently, Powe is accused of shooting Roukey rather than paying him.

A $1 million bond has been set for a 23-year-old man charged with the fatal shooting of a Hudson man who was working as a Lyft driver at the time of his death in Akron.

Kahlyl Powe, 23, pleaded not guilty during his first court appearance Tuesday.

Powe was arrested Monday just hours after allegedly shooting Kristopher Roukey near Buchtel Avenue and Straw Street in Akron.

According to court records, Powe was seen getting out of the passenger seat of the victim's vehicle and fired several shots at Roukey. The Lyft driver continued driving and crashed into a pole.

Roukey was found unresponsive inside his car. He was transported to nearby Summa Health Akron City Hospital where he was later pronounced dead.

Those who knew the victim are devastated and bewildered as to why this happened.
