Do you know these women?

Police have released the images of two women they would like to talk to after a taxi was damaged in the Clarendon Park area of Leicester.

The incident happened at about 5.15am on Saturday March 31, following a dispute over the taxi fare.

The driver collected two men and two women from King Street, where they asked to be taken to Clarendon Park Road. After a short stop at a shop on Evington Road the driver continued to Clarendon Park Road, where he requested the fare.

The two men refused to pay and then damaged the passenger side and driver door, kicking and smashing a glass bottle against the doors.

All four of the passengers then go out of the car and ran towards East Avenue.

As a result of the incident both doors were dented and the window screen was smashed.

PC Vikki Hanson, the investigating officer, said: “The taxi driver was understandably shaken and upset by the incident and also angry that his property was damaged by the men.

“Following a number of enquiries we have been able to locate these CCTV images of two women we would like to talk to. If you are these women, or you know who they are, then please come forward and help us with our investigation.

Last month the Safer Leicester Partnership began distributing leaflets containing safety advice to taxi drivers in the city. This came following an increase in crimes against drivers in the city.

PC TJ Mavani, an officer from the city Licensing Department, said: “Although serious incidents against taxi drivers are rare we still want to ensure that all drivers are well aware of ways to keep themselves protected and also how best to report a crime.”

Anyone with any information about the incident is asked to contact PC 4448 Vikki Hanson Bryan on 101, follow the instructions to leave a message for a police officer and when prompted key in the officer's identification number 4448.  Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers, which is free** and anonymous, on 0800 555 111.
