A taxi dri­ver who stopped to clean a stain from his car was robbed of the ve­hi­cle on Wednes­day night.

Po­lice said the 57-year-old dri­ver, parked his blue Hyundai Tuc­son, on Her­ron Av­enue, Phase 3, Mal­abar, around 10 pm to clean some ice cream that was spilled on­to the front pas­sen­ger seat.

While try­ing to clean the stain, the man was con­front­ed by a gun­man who or­dered him to hand over the keys to the car.

The dri­ver threw the keys at the ban­dit and ran in­to an open yard near­by, as the ban­dit drove off.
