Pair jailed for robbing Derbyshire taxi driver and taking vehicle


TWO men have been jailed for robbing a taxi driver.

Matthew Rowe and Liam Devine attacked the 31-year-old cabbie, took his money and dragged him on to the road before driving off in the taxi.

Rowe has been jailed for two years and eight months and Devine for two years and four months.

Derby Crown Court heard that the taxi driver collected Rowe and Devine, both 24, together with a female friend, from a house in Taddington Road, Chaddesden, on April 17.

He took them to a cash machine and a petrol station before they asked to be returned to the house they had come from.

They stopped in Brailsford Road and the woman got out.

Then Rowe, who was sitting in the back, grabbed the driver in a headlock while Devine punched him in the chest and stomach. They took his money, pulled him out of the cab and drove off in it.

Police later found the taxi on fire in Chandlers Ford, Oakwood.

Officers searched the area and found the two men, whose descriptions matched those given by the victim, and they were arrested.

Rowe, of Dean Street, Derby, and Devine, of Cowsley Road, Chaddesden, both pleaded guilty to the robbery.
