Suddenly Punched from Behind... Taxi Stolen After Driver Gets Out to Call Police

A perpetrator who assaulted a taxi driver and fled in the stolen vehicle has been apprehended thanks to the joint efforts of a motorcycle rider and the police.

In the early hours of June 14, a passenger boarded a taxi on a road in Seoul.

While heading toward the destination, the passenger suddenly began assaulting the driver in the face.

The assault was so intense that the driver's glasses were knocked off, and the driver eventually pulled over, got out of the vehicle, and called 112.

However, at that moment, the passenger in the backseat moved to the driver's seat and drove off in the taxi.

While the driver was in shock, a motorcycle rider who witnessed the situation from the opposite side began a pursuit.

The passenger continued to flee, ignoring the motorcycle rider's repeated demands to stop, but was eventually caught after being blocked by a police car that had just arrived at the scene.

The police plan to award the motorcycle rider with a reward and a certificate of appreciation for assisting in the arrest of the perpetrator.
