A cabby said he picked up two boys at Bukit Merah early on
Thursday.
While they were driving along Guan Chuan Street, the boy sitting
in the front seat suddenly whipped out a penknife and made a grab
for the driver’s waist pouch, the cabby said.
The taxi driver said he tried to fend the boy off with his left
hand while holding on to the steering wheel with his other
hand.
In their struggle, he lost control of the car and drove up a
kerb. He hit a road sign before swerving and crashing into the back
of the SUV, which was parked along the road.
The boys then fled.
