Northamptonshire Police are asking for the public's help to identify three men after a taxi driver was threatened in Corby,

Between 2am and 2.30am Sunday, March 30, a taxi driver was asked to drive his passengers to the BP Garage in Cottingham Road.

When they arrived, the passengers left the vehicle and approached the night-time service window to buy drinks, but took items from outside the garage, including firewood, anti-freeze and coal.

When the taxi driver challenged them, one produced a small, bladed item, and threatened him. He then drove them towards Cottingham, where they got out of the vehicle and ran away.

Officers believe the men in the photos may be able to assist with their enquiries.
