Taxi drivers riot at Melbourne airport

June 05, 2008

TAXI drivers turned on each other last night outside a Tullamarine cafe, in what appears to have been a racially charged brawl.

According to a witness, up to 30 drivers, some of them brandishing weapons, spilled onto Melrose Drive from the Melrose Lounge.

... witnesses claim the fight began between a Somalian driver and an Indian driver, before mushrooming into a brawl between Indians and drivers from various African nations.
