Not much to see here, but slightly unusual that it states that the driver was threatened with stabbing, but that no weapon was seen.

Wouldn't have thought that kind of thing that unusual in the early hours in the big cities - or at least, threats of violence in general - and nothing happens, but maybe the age of the perps here and that it happened in the afternoon are relevant.
