A TAXI driver has been arrested for causing death by dangerous driving, according to a Brighton and Hove City Council report.
The unnamed cabbie’s licence was revoked in July, according to the report to the council’s licensing committee.
Last month another cabbie’s licence was revoked, the report said, while Sussex Police were “investigating a number of serious criminal offences” and had obtained security camera footage.
The report said that a “lone female passenger was sick” in a taxi. The driver stopped and was alleged to have used force to take the woman’s bag once she was out of the vehicle.
The report added: “He then started to drive off while she was trying to retrieve her bag back through the open driver’s window. She was dragged along by the vehicle.”
A third cabbie had his licence revoked in June and was also under investigation by the police “for assault causing ABH (actual bodily harm) after being involved in an altercation with another driver”.
