Jeffrey Camacho, 26, remains in critical but stable condition at Jacobi Medical Center after being shot several times by a passenger on Saturday.
Police say Camacho stopped to pick up a passenger hailing a cab at Fish Avenue and Boston Road early Saturday morning.
Authorities say the customer shot Camacho with a 9mm weapon 7 times after being dropped off on Morrison Avenue.
The suspect made off with $23. Officials say his vehicle was not equipped with a security camera.
However, police were able to obtain video of the suspect from a local business.
Police say Camacho usually uses the Uber app to pick up passengers but for some reason picked up an illegal “street hail.”
