Robbery, Bray Park

Police are investigating the robbery and assault of a taxi driver that occurred early this morning in Bray Park.

Around 3.20am, the 36-year-old taxi driver transported two women to an address on Sparkes Road and requested payment for the fare.

The women walked away from the taxi without paying, at which time the driver got out of his vehicle and called out to the women, asking them to pay the fare.

A group of four to five men then approached the 36-year-old and struck him a number of times on his head before taking a sum of money from his jacket.

The men fled the scene on foot with the two women.

The taxi driver sustained minor injuries and did not require medical treatment.

Investigations are continuing.
