A taxi driver is now in Police custody after he reported that two men hijacked his car, committed a robbery, and then brought the car back to him.
According to reports, the driver of a taxi service situated at Rosignol, West Bank Berbice, was asked to pick up two passengers at Rosignol.
He claimed that after the pickup, the men then tied him up and dumped him out of the car at Number Two Village, WCB.
