Teenager dies a week after falling from Jarrow taxi


A TEENAGER has died a week after falling from a moving taxi.

It is believed the 18-year-old fell or jumped from the moving car as it slowed to take a bend, in Jarrow.

He suffered serious head injuries in the accident, which happened during the early hours of last Sunday morning.

And he died on Saturday at Newcastle General Hospital.

A 60-year-old man, who the Chronicle understands to be the taxi driver, was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving, last week, and is still on bail.

Four teenagers - two 17-year-olds, an 18-year-old and a 19-year-old - were arrested on suspicion of making off without paying.

The lads had allegedly been at a nightclub in South Shields before taking the taxi home to Jarrow.

A MAN has been charged with causing death by dangerous driving after a teenager died when he fell from a taxi.

The 18-year-old victim was fighting for life after falling from the moving cab on Hedworth Lane, in Jarrow.

He was taken to South Tyneside Hospital with a suspected fractured skull where he later lost his battle to survive.

The accident happened in Jarrow, at around 3.45am on Sunday, March 29.

It was initially thought that the teenager was part of a group of five teens who jumped from the black cab as it slowed to take a bend.

Two 17-year-olds, one 18 and a 19-year-old were arrested on suspicion of making off without paying but were later released without charge.

A 60-year-old man was also arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving but was bailed pending further inquiries.

He has now been charged with causing death by dangerous driving and will appear at South Tyneside Magistrates Court on Wednesday, November 25.

A spokeswoman for Northumbria Police said: "A 60-year-old South Shields man has been charged with causing death by dangerous driving following an incident from which a teenager fell from a moving taxi in Hedworth Lane, in Jarrow, in the early hours of Sunday, March 29 2009."
