E-Fit Appeal After Bridlington Taxi Driver Robbed at Knifepoint

Officers investigating a robbery are appealing for help to identify the man in an e-fit image following an incident on Station Avenue, Bridlington.

On Wednesday 4 May, a taxi driver is reported to have collected a man at approximately 12:40pm. Whilst inside the taxi, the man is alleged to have threatened the driver with a knife and demanded money.

The man then reportedly fled, making off with an estimated £600 in cash.

Thankfully, the driver was physically unharmed but was understandably left shaken by the incident.

Humberside Police say:

"We have carried out extensive enquiries into the incident and are now in a position to release this E-fit image to assist our investigations.

We are appealing for anyone who recognises the man shown, or may have witnessed the incident or anything suspicious around this time, to please come forward.

If you have any information that would be helpful to our enquiries, please call our non-emergency number 101 quoting log 15 of 4 May. If you wish to remain anonymous, please call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111"
