It is being reported that a taxi man has been stabbed to death in Fortlawn, Blanchardstown. It is early yet and has yet to be confirmed but locals say that it appears that the driver was dropping off a fare when he was stabbed.

Terrible news. I passed the scene this morning.

RTE are now saying his wife and car were in the car at the time which makes even more worse.

Just looking at RTE now and they say he picked up a man and woman in Clonee who were known to him. He wasn't on a fair. A row broke out and he got of the car and started running

He lived in Duleek, Co. Meath and picked up a couple "who were known to him". A row ensued and he ran from the car with the couple chasing after him. Apparently a local tried to help him.

It's upsetting that someone could kill someone in front of the victims family, and someone they know at that.

Long gone are the days when an arguement was sorted verbally or by a fair box. Nowadays it is hit, stab or shoot when the other is not looking and these people are proud of it.

Cowards they are
