Teen Charged After Texas Cab Driver Killed For $19

SAN ANTONIO (October 16, 2011)—Derrick Wayne Hunt, Jr., 18, was jailed Sunday, charged with capital murder in the death of a cab driver who was killed during a $19 robbery.

Hunt was charged Friday after he was arrested earlier in the day.

His bond is set at more than $1.5 million.

Witnesses say Hunt called for the cab using a fake name Monday with the intention of getting a ride without paying the fare.

Police later found the body of the cab driver, John Dexter, 49, alongside a road.

Hunt told reporters he didn't kill Dexter.
