CCTV of passenger wanted after taxi driver was racialy abused

Image

POLICE have released an image of a man suspected of racially abusing a Southampton taxi driver.

The 45-year-old driver picked up two men and two women as he drove through the city centre on Saturday, October 20, at around 5.15am.

While driving to Exeter Road to drop off one of the women, one of the men threatened the driver's family and became racially abusive.

He also started to kick the back of the driver's seat and continued to be abusive until the driver drove to Bitterne Police Station where the man left through the car window while the other two passengers got out without paying.

A CCTV image shows the suspect poking his head between the front seats, and police are appealing for anyone who can identify him or the other passengers to contact them.

They are also appealing for the passengers to come forward.

Anyone with information should contact PC Hayley Goodsell at Bitterne on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

I would hope that driver was in favour of CCTV.

I suspect the racist thug of a punter isn't a big fan at the mo.
