CABBIE HELPS MANCHESTER POLICE CATCH ALLEGED THIEF WHO FLED ON ELECTRIC SCOOTER
A cabbie helped police catch an alleged thief who fled on an electric scooter. The 43-year-old man was found hiding in a garden when officers got to him. He had fled from a supermarket in Newton Heath after being accused of shoplifting by store staff.

A taxi driver noticed where the man had escaped and gave police a lift in his car to where he had last been seen. Police then found the man hiding in a garden, and he was arrested on suspicion of theft and other alleged crimes.
In a post on the GMP Manchester North Facebook page, officers said:
