DUNDEE CABBIE ‘SLASHED ON HAND’ AFTER BEING ROBBED AT KNIFEPOINT BY PASSENGER


A Scots taxi driver had his hand slashed as he tried to get away from a knife-wielding passenger in Dundee. According to the Daily Record, the man had picked up a fare in St Andrews Street before driving to Morgan Street between 9.30am and 9.45am on May 3. But when they arrived at their destina- tion, the baseball cap-wearing passenger pulled out a knife and demanded money


from the terrified driver. He managed to get out of the grey Skoda Octavia and away from the sus- pect but suffered a hand injury during the process. The would-be thief made off along Park Avenue and towards Baxter Park before being lost from sight. Officers are keen to trace the man who is described as being white, in his 30s,


around 5ft 8 with a slim build. He was wearing a black face mask, a black cap, a black zip up jacket and bottoms while also speaking with a local accent. Detectives also say he appeared to have a dark beard or stubble. Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101 using crime reference number 0797 of May 3.


VICIOUS HAMMER ATTACK ON HANDSWORTH TAXI DRIVER CAUGHT ON CCTV


A taxi driver was left “fearing for his life” when he was battered around the head with a hammer in Handsworth. He told BirminghamLive he was hit three times by a man wearing a balacla- va after leaving his Robert Road home at around 9pm on Tuesday, April 27. Asked to be identified only as Mohammed, he was taken to hospital with severe head injuries and is cur- rently nursing his arm which was fractured as he tired to defend himself during the melee. In shocking video footage captured from nearby, Mohammed can be seen approaching his car when another man launches the ferocious attack. “The person was shouting ‘die, die, die’ at me but God willing I somehow man- aged to flee from the area,” said the 33-year-old. “I believe he tried to kill me. He was outside in a silver BMW 3 Series SE for nearly two hours before I came out of my house. I know this because I looked at my CCTV afterwards and saw him waiting. “He started hitting me with the ham- mer as I was getting into my car. I was trying to defend myself but then he hit me two more times on my elbow. I ran to the bottom of my street and hid

Mohammed said he did not, and had no idea why anyone would want to hurt him. “I’m a hard-work- ing family man. I pay my taxes and wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy. “We need to catch this individ- ual and bring him to justice – some- one must have CCTV footage or know something.”


behind a car. I didn’t know what was happening.” In CCTV footage, at the top of this story, the attacker can be seen fleeing the scene in a BMW. The driver crashed into railings near the Hutton Road/Robert Road junction and part of the car’s bumper broke off. But the attacker managed to escape soon after. A blood-soaked Mohammed walked back into his house where his family, including his four-year-old son, were waiting for him. When asked if he had any enemies,


Mohammed added he feels let down and neglected by police who he claims have barely spoken to him following the attack. “It’s like they don’t care. If I had died they would be taking this more serious- ly because it would be murder. “The MoT garage by me has cameras pointing down Church Hill Road, where the attacker likely came from, but only record for seven days before footage is deleted. If police had taken this seri- ously from day one they might have a number plate by now.”
