An Uber driver was arrested Monday, weeks after robbing a woman at knifepoint in northwest Miami-Dade.
According to an arrest report, the unidentified victim requested an Uber to pick her up outside Mango's in Miami Beach early in the morning on Feb. 4.
Police said Yoandi Borroto, 31, picked up the victim in a Toyota Camry.
When the victim got out of the car in the area of Northwest Seventh Ave. and 107th Street, Borroto allegedly exited the vehicle as well, pulled out a knife and demanded money from the victim.
Police said the victim struggled with Borroto, but he was able to get $2,300 in cash from her purse.
The victim told police that she took a photo of Borroto's car with her iPhone, but he snatched the phone from her.
The victim said she bit Borroto on his left arm during the struggle, and he got back into his car and drove away.
Although Borroto got away with the victim's phone, the photo that she snapped was saved to her iCloud account.
Police said the victim also identified Borroto in a photo lineup on Sunday. He was arrested the next day on a charge of armed robbery with a deadly weapon.
Uber spokeswoman Jodi Page confirmed that Borroto is an Uber driver, but said the company has no record of him driving for the ride-sharing service on Feb. 4.
Borroto's attorneys insist the passenger is to blame. In bond court on Tuesday, the man was ordered on house arrest.
An investigation continues.
