Miami rapper gives directions during Uber ride, driver pulls out a gun and says, ‘Get out of my vehicle'
A shocking video has surfaced from Miami, showing an Uber driver allegedly pulling a gun on her passengers after a brief exchange over directions.
Conflicts between cab drivers and passengers have become increasingly common, but this particular incident took a frightening turn. According to a video now going viral, the driver snapped after being advised on where to turn, and shouted, 'Get out of my vehicle now! You're no longer in the ride. Get out!' She then dialled 911 and, moments later, pulled out a gun and pointed it at her two passengers.
Krissy Celess, a rising Miami rapper, shared the footage of the frightening encounter, explaining how the situation spiraled out of control. 'I just never expected anything like this to happen,' she told WSVN, admitting she feared for her life and worried she might never see her 4-year-old son again.

According to Celess, the ordeal began when she tried to guide the driver on the route. She said, 'Hey, the turn is right here. You're going to make a left.' The driver allegedly responded saying, 'Oh, you don't have to tell me. That's what I have a GPS for,' while driving in the middle lane. Celess believes it was her remark about the driver's 'crazy eyes' that set off the violent reaction.
The passengers are now planning legal action against Uber. Their lawyer, Carlos Dominguez, described the driver's behaviour as 'extremely aggressive,' noting that pulling a gun was 'extremely excessive'. He said, 'You know, emotions can sometimes spur out of control because of a simple disagreement, but those disagreements do not necessitate a firearm to be pointed at you.' He said, 'Aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Simply shocking. I mean, you get the first-person perspective of having a gun pointed at you.'
Uber responded to the incident by removing the driver's access to their app and launching an investigation. The company also reaffirmed that their drivers are prohibited from carrying firearms. Meanwhile, the police are actively looking into the case.
Similar unsettling encounters with Uber drivers have also been reported in India. A resident of Gurgaon recently made a Reddit post to share a disturbing experience that led them to cancel their ride and hurry back home. The incident happened when the user booked a Priority Sedan on Uber to travel to a nearby train station, just an hour away. As the driver neared, the user checked the app to verify the OTP and was shocked to see a disturbing message in the Uber chat.
The passenger had messaged, 'I am here. Anand Vihar Terminal drop. Please come.' In response, the driver sent a chilling reply: 'Go to Anand Vihar. I want to go to kidnap you happily.' This strange and threatening message left the Gurgaon resident deeply shaken.

Ludhiana native shot dead by assailants in Canada's Edmonton
Inderpal Singh, a native of Ludhiana's Jand village was shot dead by unidentified assailants in Edmonton, Canada on June 4. Singh leaves behind a pregnant wife and an eight-year-old daughter. A pall of gloom descended on the village with the deceased kin and friends describing him as a decent man with no enemies. The incident occurred late at night in the Edmonton city's southwest area. According to the initial police report, Inderpal, who had moved to Canada from Hong Kong about 18 months ago, had been working as an Uber taxi driver. 'On the night of the tragedy, he parked his cab outside his home when an unknown man approached and fired four bullets at him from close range. He succumbed to his injuries on the spot. Local residents who heard the gunshots immediately alerted the authorities,' police said. Medical officials later confirmed that Singh died instantly after being shot multiple times. While investigations are ongoing, police are not ruling out the possibility of a personal rivalry or gang-related involvement behind the murder. No arrests have been made so far. As of now, the motive behind the killing remains unclear. According to the family members, he had recently brought his wife to Canada on a work permit. The couple was expecting their second child and had hoped to build a better life overseas. The news has devastated the family. Just months earlier, Singh's father had passed away during a visit to Canada on a temporary visa. The victim's close friend Harry confirmed that Inderpal had no known enemies. 'The family's financial condition is dire, and efforts are being made through fundraising platforms like GoFundMe to assist his kin,' Harry said. The Indian community in Edmonton has expressed outrage over the incident, demanding swift action from law enforcement agencies. Local advocacy groups have also called for better protection of immigrants and delivery workers who are often exposed to high-risk environments. The family is now seeking support from both Indian and Canadian authorities to ensure justice is delivered and his body is brought back home for final rites.

'Baby, We're Ordering That Pill': 15-Year-Old Girl's Secret Chats Shock Brother, Reddit Reacts
Last Updated: A teen's private WhatsApp chat left open on a laptop led her brother to discover a troubling relationship, prompting concerns about family responsibility and youth vulnerability The responsibility of raising and guiding children does not rest solely on parents but extends to every member of the family. A supportive and open home environment is vital to help young people navigate the complexities of adolescence. However, not all feel safe enough to share their struggles. In today's digital age, many youths are increasingly influenced by external forces – peers, online communities, or manipulative individuals – who may lead them astray. As a result, instead of turning to their families, some choose secrecy, hiding important aspects of their lives out of fear, confusion, or misplaced trust. In a recent case, a young man uncovered disturbing information about his sister after she inadvertently left her WhatsApp account logged in on his laptop. Shocked by what he read, he turned to social media to share his experience. Disturbing Details Shared Online A Reddit user, posting under the handle @babidi_bada_boom-500 in the group r/indiasocial, detailed a harrowing experience involving his 15-year-old sister. Accompanying the post was an image of the WhatsApp interface, revealing the source of his distress. The user explained that his sister had accessed WhatsApp on his laptop and failed to log out. Upon opening it, he found private messages, presumably from her boyfriend, that left him stunned. 'I feel my family has failed, I have failed as a brother, and my parents have failed in raising my sister. I cannot describe the pain I feel after seeing this," he wrote. The user stated that he recognised the name of the boy his sister had been speaking to, someone he had previously warned to stay away due to inappropriate behaviour. He was particularly distressed to find the boy persuading his sister to convert to Christianity and noted that his sister appeared complicit in the exchange. The WhatsApp conversation also alluded to the boy procuring medication, implying the couple may have engaged in unprotected sexual activity. While uncertain about the exact nature of the medicine, the brother was deeply troubled and turned to the online community for guidance on how to proceed. First Published: June 06, 2025, 14:27 IST
