Kutin Gyimah, 52, a married father of four young kids, was fatally injured Aug. 13 when he chased down passengers who tried to rob him, police said.
Kutin Gyimah was dropping off the five people around 6:30 a.m. at Beach 54th Street and Arverne Boulevard in the Rockaways when the senseless violence unfolded.
