According to Didi's response, at about 2 am on March 14, after Master Gao, the driver of Didi Express, took the order, passengers and drivers explained through the text of Didi Platform that they should not call this Didi account, and the number bound by the account belongs to his father. I'm afraid it will disturb my family's rest. I don't know if Master Gao didn't see the news or what happened. After arriving at the appointed place, Master Gao still dialed the number left by Didi. After that, the two had an argument, and there was a female passenger with them. Female passengers advised them not to quarrel, but it was useless. The male passenger threw the drink bottle in his hand in the back seat of the car, and then the driver lost his mind in anger and hit the male passenger many times, causing his death.
According to the cousin of the male passenger, the male passenger was still conscious after being hit and called a friend.
Master Gao called the police after hitting the male passenger and called the emergency number 120, but the male passenger died in the end.
Didi said that he was extremely saddened and shocked by this unfortunate incident and strongly condemned the bad behavior of the perpetrators. At the same time, a special working group was set up after the incident, which will actively cooperate with the police to carry out case investigation and provide the police with information such as in-car audio, video and order itinerary. At present, the driver has been under police control.
At the same time, Didi also provided some information about the driver. Master Gao was registered as a Didi driver through background investigation (no criminal record) on April 20 19, and obtained the online taxi driver's license. His driving experience is 19, and he has no safety-related complaints in the past.
The cousin of the deceased told the media that the family of the deceased had reached a compensation agreement with Didi in the early morning of 15. Family members said that no one has come forward to communicate with the driver.
The police in Changle District of Fuzhou issued a case report saying that the suspect Gao had been detained by the police and the case was under further investigation and handling.
