A cab driver who was brutally beaten on the Hamilton Mountain Tuesday was also robbed, Hamilton police say.

Around 11:30 p.m., a taxi driver picked up two men and a woman at a grocery store on the corner of Upper Paradise and Mohawk Road West. They asked to be driven to a townhouse on Limeridge Road West, police say.

Once there, each person said they didn't have any cash, and asked the driver to come to one of the units to be paid. He agreed, but once they were in front of the unit the three people threw the driver to the ground and started punching him, police say.

After the assault, the three people ran off, police say. On Monday morning, police announced that the victim was able to give a statement to police. He told them that during the assault, some money fell to the ground and was stolen by the suspects.

The 55-year-old male victim was taken to hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries.

Police are asking anyone with information to call police at 905-546-3873 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
