Taxi Jumps - At around 10:30 on Sunday morning a female taxi driver attended Hamilton Police Station to report that a man jumped out of her cab without paying.

He then was transported to Shelton Road, where the passenger stated he had to go to a house to pick someone up. Upon his return he asked the driver, to open up the back of the taxi because he had something to put in the back of the vehicle and whilst the driver got out of the cab the man made good his escape.
