Melbourne gig rider murder prompts safety calls and murder charge
Employees in Melbourne’s central business district said the city must improve safety for gig workers after a HungryPanda rider was murdered. The Guardian reported that a 51-year-old man was charged with murder and serious injury in connection with the stabbing.
The victim, 47-year-old Feng Jianming, was fatally stabbed on 6 November during a dispute over tampered delivery bikes. A community vigil raised $65,000 for his family, and a GoFundMe campaign later collected more than $170,000, according to The Age and The Nightly respectively.
