Bogus fare robbery in Stockport sees gang pull taxi driver from cab - then crash into seven cars The victim was left with a head injury following the attack in Heaton Chapel A gang pulled a taxi driver from his cab during a 'bogus fare' robbery in Stockport - before crashing the car and damaging seven others. The driver had been flagged down by what appeared to be a lone man on Marbury Road, Heaton Chapel , on Tuesday at around 7.45pm. But when the cabbie stopped four or five men - most of whom were hiding nearby - attacked him and yanked him out of the taxi. They drove off in the Volkswagen Passat but crashed it around two hours later on Haveley Road, in the Wythenshawe area of Manchester, damaging the other vehicles before fleeing the scene. The gang is described as white males in their early 20s. Police , who have recovered the taxi, have appealed for witnesses and say the driver was left with a minor head injury. A spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said: “The driver was not badly injured, just shaken. One man flagged the driver down the rest jumped out when he stopped.” Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. source: http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/ ... i-11730026 |
