A man pretending to be a passenger stole a car from a taxi stand on June 29 while the driver was seeking out other passengers, but crashed it minutes later.

Around 9 am on June 29, the 53-year-old taxi driver was parked on the Couva taxi stand near Busy Corner, Chaguanas.

A man dressed in a white jersey and black three-quarter pants approached the car and sat in the front seat.
