A teenage girl from Chicago who has been charged with killing an Uber driver randomly attacked the man with a knife and a machete that she had just stolen from Walmart, authorities say.
Eliza Wasni, 16, kept her eyes mostly to the floor Wednesday afternoon as a Cook County judge ordered her held without bond in the killing of Grant Nelson of Wilmette — an act prosecutors called "heinous" and "not provoked in any manner."
Prosecutors said Nelson, 34, had picked up Wasni a few blocks from a Walmart in Skokie and, minutes into the ride, near the corner of Touhy and Lincoln avenues in Lincolnwood, she began stabbing Nelson. He managed to pull over his Hyundai and run to a nearby condominium building lobby, where he pushed buzzers yelling, "Help me, help me. I'm going to die," Assistant State's Attorney Michelle Cunningham said.
Wasni took off in Nelson's car but quickly struck a median and then ran off on foot, the official said. She was found nearby wearing just a bra and leggings; a blood-stained Chicago Cubs shirt was found nearby, and a trail of blood led responding officers to the condominium lobby and then to the seriously injured Uber driver, Cunningham said in court. Police were able to use the Uber app on his phone to see that "Eliza" was the name of his most recent customer, the prosecutor said.

Heartbreaking.
We live in a sad world that devalues life.
= new reply since forum marked as read
Killed by a fucking psycho for just doing his job.
Rest in peace, Grant.
So sad, he was just trying to get by in this life. What kind of demons does she possess, she looks like a child.
that's understandable and probably true, yet all that turns negative and EVIL, per your fan's response in a posting, racially, socially and culturally, I WILL blame the RW for instigating and encouraging. PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!! No passes anywhere. Also, I do not do facebook, had big problems with that fucked up site of miscreants and dittoheads. Hell, today I'm looking at all citizens, especially Caucasians with a wariness I haven't felt since the 50's, 60's and 70's.
evidently, a lot really do....
as a preemptive strike in case he even thinks about comitting some crime some day.
But white girl savagely murdering a random stranger? Must be mental illness or drugs and we must look into options for treatment and counseling because she's the real victim here and society has failed our youth. 
The cops should ask her if she'd like a burger and fries.
