The police are warning taxi drivers and women to beware of suspicious strangers in the coming months.

Senior Sergeant William Holder of the Police Strategic Communications Department (Stratcom) said the warning comes as a result of the two incidents that happened this week.

Without adding details, he said that a few nights ago, passengers in a taxi attempted to rob the driver after hiring him to take them to a certain location.

Holder warned taxi drivers that if a customer looks suspicious it is better to lose a little change than risk life.

A young woman who allegedly got a ride from somebody she knew was taken to an undisclosed location. She was unaware of the two other males that were in the car when she got in.

She was reportedly assaulted.

As a result, the police are warning women to avoid going with individuals they are not quite sure about and if possible not go alone.
