Kless and two female friends were walking on Chestnut Street near Fourth Street when he tried to hail a cab. The three had just left Lucy's Hat Shop Restaurant & Lounge, a few blocks away.
The cab's rooftop lights were on, signaling it was available, but there were passenagers inside and the taxi didn't stop. Police said Kless yelled "turn off your f-ing lights."
A Maroon Mazda with four men inside drove up behind the cab, as traffic likely slowed up for a brief moment, Evers said.
"We assume the people in the car feel he's yelling at them," said one investigator.
