An Uber Eats driver is being sought in Atlanta, Georgia for allegedly shooting a customer after a dispute and fleeing the scene:

An UberEATS driver was on the run Monday after a man who ordered a meal from the online food delivery service was killed in a late night shooting in Atlanta over the weekend, police told local media.

The 30-year-old man was shot multiple times after exchanging words with the driver in Atlanta's Buckhead neighborhood at about 11:30 p.m. Saturday, police told Atlanta's NBC affiliate WXIA, channel 11.

Also at WSB-TV, 11Alive, and AJC.

    Uber Eats?

    Why not:
    Uber Drive-by, for when you want somebody taken out.
    Uber Hit, for when you need to be precise.
    Uber Undertaking, turn your hatchback into a hearse!
    Uber Uterus, surrogate pregnancy in a cheaper body.

    The wombsharing one sounds feasible. Several countries have enacted laws restricting surrogacy. If there's anything Uber does best, it's routing around regulations.

    You forgot: Uber Mensch, for when you need an army to invade Poland but don’t want to buy your own tanks.
