Police Hunt Cabbie After Teen Injury

7th July 2009

Police believe a taxi driver could be the key to an investigation in which a teenager was injured in Rochdale.

At 9.50pm on Saturday 6 June 2009, a house party at the junction of Manchester Road and Hareshill Road was ongoing when a 17-year-old boy jumped out in front of silver coloured Mercedes.

The driver was forced to make an emergency stop, and was subsequently hit from behind by a burgundy coloured car, possibly a Toyota Avensis, which sustained extensive damage to its offside headlight and bodywork.

It is thought this was a taxi being driven by an Asian man, but the driver failed to supply his details and drove off.

The teenager suffered a cut to his hand.

Police are now trying to locate the driver of the burgundy car and are appealing for him to come forward.

Anyone with information should call Greater Manchester Police on 0161 856 8473 or email 09352@gmp.pnn.police.uk

Come on Rochdale drivers!!

Some one must know who he is, or at least the car!!

Probably an unlicensed driver using a fifty-seventh cousin's licensed vehicle to earn a little extra on a Saturday night.
