Taxi driver steals woman’s bag

-

A taxi driver recently stole a woman’s bag in Paramaribo. The woman told the police that the bag contained her passport, vaccinatio­n documents, receipts and one thousand euros. After the woman had taken the taxi, she instructed the driver to go to a store so that she could do some shopping.

When the taxi pulled over in front of the store, the woman exited the taxi but left her bag on the back seat because she was afraid of getting robbed on the street. The woman asked the taxi driver to wait for her and she entered the store. But when she returned outside after a few minutes the taxi was gone. The woman realized that the taxi driver had stolen her bag. She went to several locations with the hope of finding the taxi driver but she did not see him. The woman told the police that she would recognize the tax driver if she were to see him again.
