Anchorage police are calling on the public for help identifying three suspects who allegedly beat up a cab driver in the fall, fracturing his face.
On Oct. 4, a cab driver took three occupants to multiple locations around town before dropping them off around 4:30 a.m. near Fifth Avenue and E Street, according to a statement from Anchorage Police Department spokeswoman Anita Shell. When the cab driver asked for his payment, the trio “severely assaulted the driver by punching him about the head and body,” which caused facial fractures and required hospitalization, Shell wrote.
Detectives have been working the case but believe the public may be able to identify the people involved, Shell said. Police ask anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at 561-STOP or submit tips online.
