Taxi fare evaders caught on camera
By Sergeant Lawrie Drury, Sector Supervisor, Helensburgh Police Station
POLICE have released these photos of fare evaders who caught a taxi from Kings Cross to Stanwell Park early in the morning of November 26, 2011.
Three caucasion males, aged beetween 24 and 26 years, were involved in the 75-minute journey to Railway Crescent, where they quickly exited the taxi and fled in separate directions without paying the fare.
This has previously occurred in Stanwell Park, leaving the taxi driver bearing the cost for taking people home safely.
If anyone can identify these two males, please contact Helensburgh Police Station on 4294 1013.
