corruption is hard to ferret out with in a environment where skunks run city hall
I presume his complete identity is known as the victim is filing a lawsuit against the driver and his employer.
The victim's combativeness must have been verbal, else she'd have been arrested.
I'm open to correction, but I think the cabbies actions constitute assault under common law. I would have been in fear of my life, perhaps the lady wasn't. Substitue pig (as in leo) for Jew, the cops would have arrested him.
