WBFF Fox 45 :: Taxi Driver Seemingly Set Up and Murdered, Police Search for Answers
Metro Police are searching for clues in the murder of a local cab driver. Henry Moore was shot and killed as he approached a West Nashville intersection where he'd been dispatched early Friday. Managers at Yellow Cab say Moore was dispatched to 10th Avenue North to pick up a woman who said she needed to get a sick child to the hospital. Police believe Moore was shot as he approached an intersection. He accelerated to get away and crashed the mini van cab at 10th and Garfield. Friends say Moore was generous and easy going.

"He was a free hearted person, helped anybody, give you the shirt off his back," says friend Richard Williams. "He'd help you."

Friends say Henry had been a Nashville cab driver for 40 years. It was a job he loved despite the risks. Anyone with information about the murder can contact Metro Police at 74-CRIME.

Houston brother will be his own attorney in court
June 18, 2013 13:02 GMT

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A Roane County man will face federal gun violation charges next month without an attorney.

The Knoxville News Sentinel (http://bit.ly/17VlXpM ) reported Rocky Joe Houston will represent himself on a charge of possession of a gun by a felon.

The charge came after Houston earlier represented himself in state court on charges stemming from a police chase. He was convicted of evading arrest and reckless endangerment.

Houston and his brother, Leon Houston, were tried, but not convicted, in the 2006 shooting deaths of a Roane County deputy and his ride-along companion.

In federal court, Rocky Joe Houston is claiming the officer who charged him with the felony had no legal authority.
