Scoop | Last Night The first incident occurred at about 12:30 a.m. when police received reports of an erratic eastbound car on Fort Street. "The passenger was kicking open the door and legs were hanging out of the moving vehicle," said Sgt. Les Sylven, Victoria police. Eventually the car, operated by a female in her 20s, smashed through a fence and struck a transformer near Central Middle School, near the intersection of Fort Street and Moss Street. A short power outage resulted. The impact of the crash knocked the transformer off its base, said Victoria Fire Department battalion chief Ted Alexis. The occupants are lucky the car didn't become energized. "They could have been electrocuted," said Alexis, who added they were taken to hospital for observation. A couple of hours later, at about 2:45 a.m., police responded to reports of a Blue Bird taxi stolen outside of a Yates Street nightclub. While the driver was robbed by a man believed to be armed with a knife outside the cab, a backseat passenger climbed into the driver's seat and sped off. The car travelled the wrong way on a one-way street, while crashing into parked cars, until it slid off the road hitting a parked car. Police cars surrounded the cab on Old Esquimalt Road near Head Street and arrested the driver. A 19-year-old man is charged with seven counts of failing to stop at the scene of an accident, robbery with a weapon, dangerous driving, impaired driving, failing to comply with a probation order and fleeing from police. Police are still searching for the second suspect. - Sun, 1 Jun 2003 4:03pm | ||

J.J. | I heard at work today that they actually tried to rob him while he was driving. They tried to stab him so he jumped out of the car. Thats when they stole the car and took it for a joyride and then totalled it. The thing that I find sad is that this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened to the driver. He has been beaten up and robbed at least three or four times. He is a little chinese man who just bought his cab about a month ago who does not have very good judgement about the people he picks up. We keep telling him he should be a day driver but he doesnt listen. - Sun, 1 Jun 2003 8:27pm | ||

Ron Cheremy | You kids need to ease off on the porno, it's starting to affect your brains. - Mon, 2 Jun 2003 3:07am | ||
some girl... | It's YOU'RE not "your". I just had to say that since people are constantly slagging me for my lack of english skills. I don't think that Isobellia is ignorant either: it is a funny story. Besides, who in Victoria hasn't been robbed? I was a couple years ago by a crack-head. And I think that my mug story is funny too: I was walking to Speed street and mugged by a speed-head! - Mon, 2 Jun 2003 2:29pm | ||
brandon User Info... | Actually, this time "you're" doesnt work. If "you're" replaces the "your" in "it's starting to affect your brains", the last line would mean "it's starting to affect you are brains" - Mon, 2 Jun 2003 3:07pm | ||
some girl... | Umm, I wasn't talking about "your brains." The reference was for "your a fucking losser." heee hehheheee... - Mon, 2 Jun 2003 3:19pm | ||

Isobellia User Info... | Hey now no need to be getting to hasty! excuse my initial statement I fully agree with you jj it does suck and its quite a shame that this actually happens however the irony of this happening to him within a one month time period is amusing, not nescesarily persay the actual events directed towards him and also I have had my fare share of karma kicking me in the face but Ive learned to laugfh at it - Mon, 2 Jun 2003 8:57pm | ||
J.J. | Thats cool! Im just a bit deffensive because it's someone I know. I didn't mean to jump down your throat or anything. And for all the anal people out there ..... Is everything spelled (spelt) correct? Is the English properly worded? - Mon, 2 Jun 2003 9:31pm | ||

some girl... | You're more than welcome to buy me a drink at the Hoosegow show! (I keep accidently calling them "Hoosejaw" b/c I think of Moosejaw, Alberta) Just look for the loud chick with black and red hair! (that goes for everyone: I'm poor!!!!) Oh, I'm only half kidding here. I have friends that'll help me out if I can convince them to go out in the work week. I will more than likely be just drinking soda water anyways (I'm such a lush). - Wed, 4 Jun 2003 2:36pm | ||
