Two 16-year-old girls were arrested on murder indictments Saturday in the Aug. 23, 2011, slaying of cabdriver Adam Williams.

Emily Katherine Starnes, of Little River Road in Hildebran, and Consandra Nicole Tyree, of Ninth Tee Drive in Newton, were arrested and charged with murder, robbery with a dangerous weapon and conspiracy to commit robbery with a dangerous weapon. Both girls are being held under no bond in the Catawba County jail.

Supposedly cab driving is the most dangerous job.

I can see why too. Please note that I have never been in a cab, nor have I seen one IRL. (I live under a rock).

But, don't most passenger's sit in the back seat? The passenger could have anything, and it would be so easy to shoot the driver in the back of the head after giving directions to a isolated area.

Props to those that actually have the nuts to do the job though.
