Taximark   10 #15 Posted July 19, 2012 My partner has confirmed that it was a City taxi driver that was attacked and that he has lost an eye. It is truelly awful apparently some people should not be allowed out on the streets.  Terrible if true, did you get a name?  Also notice how a thread has barely anyone contributing to it for such a serious violent crime although if someone had been overcharged by 30p there would be 500 posts etc, in my opinion of course.

Taximark   10 #24 Posted July 20, 2012 It got confirmed to me today in person, the driver only asked him to drink his bottle in case he spilt it, the yob reacted angrily to this, he then smashed the bottle and stabbed him in the eye, the Taxi Driver has now lost his eye, how and why someone would do that just shows what cowards we live next too, he'll probably get a light sentence and will be in the pub again in a few months time.
