Authorities say the rideshare driver picked up 39-year-old Rachel James near Blackstone and Ashlan in Fresno. During the drive, police say James pulled out scissors, put them to the driver's neck and demanded money.
The driver was eventually able to pull into the shopping center on Shaw and Sunnyside, and after struggling with the suspect, was ultimately cut on the chin from the scissors. Officers say James took some money, slashed the victim's tires and left.
