A Newark man accused of fatally shooting a cab driver on a northern New Jersey highway last year has been indicted on several charges, including murder.
The Record reports 25-year-old Mujahideen Abdullah also faces drug and weapons charges in the 16-count indictment handed up by a Bergen County grand jury.
Abdullah is charged in the June 2014 shooting death of Jeff Mansilla of Hackensack on Interstate 80.
Authorities say the men argued at a strip club, and Abdullah and a female companion allegedly followed Mansilla when he drove off in his cab with an acquaintance and a customer.
Abdullah allegedly took out a handgun and fired several shots.
Mansilla was shot in the hip. A passenger drove him to a hospital, but he died there a short time later.
