NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- A local cab driver allegedly tried to run over two customers after a fight over religion became heated.

The incident happened early Sunday morning on the Vanderbilt campus and left one man hospitalized and a cab driver arrested, said police Two students visiting from Ohio were coming from a bar downtown when they got into an argument with their driver over religion, said police. After they paid the driver he allegedly ran them down in a parking lot.

Ibrihim Ahmned, of United Cab, was arrested and charged with assault, attempted homicide and theft. One of the passengers, Andrew Nelson, managed to outrun the cab but Jeremy Invus was taken to the Vanderbilt University Medical Center with serious injuries, said police.

Ahmed has been convicted of misdemeanors including evading arrest in a motor vehicle and driving on a suspended license, said police. Ahmed was charged with theft because police said the license plate on his cab was listed as stolen. His bond is set at $300,000.

after a fight over religion became heated.

There is some bad blood between the Methodist Synod 1908 and the Reformed Methodist Synod 1939.

This sounds like a hate crime.

Yeah. No doubt the two kids will get charged for a hate crime for denting the Moo's cab and getting infidel blood all over it.....

I wonder what his religious priorities are.

Oddly enough, before I clicked the link, I had already correctly guessed the "religion" involved in the dispute.

Unitarian?

Was the driver a Middle Eastern Muslim or a plain old Black Muslim? I have noticed that a lot of the big mouthed Imams that we have seen on tv, lately, appear to be the home grown sort.

Contact the City of Nashville. I just asked them if they were going to investigate the United Cab company for hiring someone who had been convicted of misdemeanors including evading arrest in a motor vehicle and driving on a suspended license, said police.

Do we even know if this person is here legally?

Why are we importing cab drivers anyway?

Plus, there weren't four other mohammedans to witness it, so according to shari'a, no crime occured. Heck, it was only acouple if infidels, who probably hadn't paid their jizaya...

*spit*

[Malacoda]

Nah -- he'd have lutefiske'd them if he was a splinter of the Lutheran jihad. (Trust me -- lutefiske is a deadly weapon.) He's probably old-ordnung Amish.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Gee, I correctly guessed the driver's religion before it was revealed on FOX News.

Cab company confirmed to Fox News that the perp was not employed with their company, and had only applied for a job. The thinking is he just "got his hands on some keys."
