Bronx cabbies pay tribute to slain co-worker
The co-workers of a Bronx cab driver who was fatally shot last weekend held a procession in his honor Thursday afternoon.
Jose Pena-Seguira was shot in the head Sunday night in Mott Haven by a man police say was apparently on parole for another murder. Authorities later apprehended the suspect, who was identified as 31-year-old Benny Delgado.
On Thursday, Pena-Seguira's colleagues at Kiss Car Service paid tribute to him by forming a procession of cabs that passed by the spot where he was shot and ended at Ortiz Funeral Home, where his wake will be held.
