23 Feb 2008 Rhyl taxi driver slashed for no reason A TEENAGE thug who slashed a taxi driver across the face for no reason was jailed for four years. Shane Bamber, 18, had banged on top of the taxi as it passed him in a street in Rhyl prompting driver Tony Machin to stop to check for damage. Bamber ran towards him and as Mr Machin went to get back into the cab, Bamber cut him across the face with a knife. Mr Machin fell back into the taxi believing he had been punched, Mold Crown Court was told yesterday. Prosecutor David Mainstone told the court that from the amount of blood it became clear that he had been cut with a blade. Mr Mainstone said the incident happened at 11pm on August 3 in Ffordd Las in Rhyl. Bamber was arrested 45 minutes later. Bamber, of Mona Terrace in Rhyl, admitted a charge of wounding with intent to inflict grievous bodily harm. Simon Mintz, defending, said that Bamber had been 17 at the time and very drunk. He was remorseful about what he had done Source: Daily Post ---------- Disclaimer These press articles are intended for informational purposes only.
