A taxi driver was fired from his job after dashcam video showed him using a handgun to make threats to a passenger.
The incident took place in Ireland and the driver was employed by fonaCAB. In the video, the driver tells the passenger that he’ll “take your f***ing legs off” if a debt is not paid.
According to the Belfast Telegraph, the company had taken action against the driver before the video began to circulate the internet.
“We were made aware of dashcam footage of an incident involving a fonaCAB driver around 23.30 on May 31 2023,” said a spokesperson. “The driver was identified and called this morning to present at the earliest opportunity to fonaCAB Head Office, at which time he was interviewed and his relationship with fonaCAB immediately terminated.”
Another passenger can be seen sitting in the back seat at the driver waves his gun and makes threats.
“You are f***ing lucky I’m not f***ing taking your knees out down this f***ing car park son. I’m f***ing telling you now, because that’s the f**ing mood I’m in. Believe me,” the driver tells the man.
“Now I’m telling you, see what happens in this car, see if I hear anybody f***ing talking about it mate, I will take your f***ing head off.”
At one point, the taxi driver smacks the man in the face with the gun.
