Lyft Driver Charged with Attempted Luring and Sexually Harassing 2 Princeton University Students

Authorities say the driver offered $100 before demanding sex from one student and is accused of targeting at least two Princeton University students.

  • On Tuesday, the Mercer County Prosecutor's Office announced charges against 28-year-old Lyft driver Dimario Wynter of Spotswood, New Jersey, for luring and harassing two Princeton University students last month.
  • Prosecutors allege the first incident occurred April 16 when Wynter stopped his black Jeep Patriot on Prospect Avenue around noon, handing a student a $100 bill and demanding a sexual act.
  • The following day, April 17, Wynter allegedly approached a second student on Ivy Lane around 9:30 a.m., offering a $100 bill and asking her to leave with him before she returned the money.
  • Princeton University Department of Public Safety Detective Martin Krzywicki identified the suspect, leading to Wynter's arrest April 30 at the Princeton Police Department; he was released pending future court appearances.
  • Lyft confirmed it permanently removed the driver from its platform, stating the company takes such reports "extremely seriously" in a statement to FOX 29.
