Driver Kills 6, Blames It On Uber App

An Uber driver, Jason Dalton, may be facing a life sentence in jail if convicted of crimes he committed. Dalton has been charged with shooting eight people and killing six of them under five hours.

The incident occurred on February 20th when Dalton, 45 who was on ‘duty’ as an Uber driver somewhere in Kalamazoo area of Michigan, claimed to have been overpowered by the Uber app taking over his mind and body. “When I logged onto the Uber app, it started making me feel like a puppet.” He claims that the app programs his mind and allows him to perpetrate the murderous acts. Slightly interesting is the fact that none of his victims are Uber riders or customers which begs the question; how did he happen on the innocent people killed in cold blood?

According to a report made available by one of the investigators, “I asked Dalton what made him get his gun tonight, and he said the Uber app made him.” The State of Michigan does not allow the death penalty which will see Mr.Dalton serve a lifetime imprisonment if found guilty of charges levied against him.

Until this time, Dalton had no previous criminal records but he is reported to have said that the dastardly assignments are given to him when the horned cow head of a devil appear on his phone screen.
