Yesterday District Attorney Mitch Morrissey formally charged 24-year-old Curt Glinton with four counts of attempted first-degree murder, two counts of first degree assault, one count of robbery, one count of leaving the scene of an accident, and one count of vehicular assault.
According to the DA's office, early in the morning on March 16, 2014, Glinton was getting dropped off near 44th Avenue and Tejon Street when he attacked a taxi driver over a $6 fare. When a passerby tried to intervene, Glinton allegedly got into the taxi and ran over the bystander, causing serious injuries, and then fled. Glinton was taken into custody a short time later.
Glinton has been released from custody on $10,000 bond. He is scheduled to appear in court tomorrow. More from our taxi archives: Uber v. Lyft v. taxis: Comparing ride-sharing options in Denver
