Teenage thugs attack Edinburgh taxi driver
An Edinburgh taxi driver was assaulted by a gang of three teenagers in the early hours of Saturday 27 October as he stopped to drop off a passenger. The 43-year-old driver was attacked in the capital’s Duddingston Row area at around 12.30am when the youths forced his door open and aggressively demanded money.
When the victim attempted to shut the door in self-defence, the teenagers punched him repeatedly before fleeing the scene of the crime. Police are now on the lookout for the attackers, all of whom were white males, although the driver was only able to give a description of two of them.
The main suspect is said to be between 17 and 18, around 5ft 7in, with a “pasty” complexion, and was wearing a white hooded top at the time of the assault. The second attacker is aged between 15 and 17. As well as searching for the trio of thugs, police are also eager to establish contact with the passenger who witnessed the incident. He is described as being in his late 50s to early 60s and is believed to live in Duddingston Row.
Sussex, I hope they do get caught, but looking at the date of the artical they will be banged up before the insident took place, considering its only September
