2 Independent & Free Press, Tuesday,March 15, 2011 Police blotter Cabbie flees from would-be robber Halton Police are looking for a man who attempted to rob a cab driver at knifepoint in Georgetown Thursday night. Police say about 11:40 p.m. a Georgetown Taxi cab driver was in his cab on Mill St. when a suspect came up from behind, opened the driver's side door and demanded money while brandishing a knife. The cab driver didn't give him any money. He put the car in drive and drove away. The suspect was last seen running southbound on Mill St. toward Guelph St. The suspect is described as white, 5'8" to 5'10" and was wearing a black parka, thin gloves and a white and dark-coloured Halloween mask. The knife used had a black handle and a thin four to five inch blade. The cab driver wasn't injured. Anyone with information is asked to call Halton Police at 905-878-5511 ext. 2415 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). ··· A GPS, Blackberry and iPod were stolen from a home on Harrop Ave. in Georgetown sometime between Thursday (Mar. 3) and last Thursday (Mar. 10). There was no sign of forced entry into the home. The value of the stolen items is about $600. The snowfall that came through the area Wednesday evening left local roads treacherous and kept Halton Regional Police busy responding to several minor accidents and vehicles in the ditch. In one instance on 10 Sideroad, west of Eighth Line, shortly after 6 p.m. two vehicles ended up in the ditch-- one an unmarked police cruiser. Among the other accidents was one at 6:10 p.m. in which a vehicle that had left the road on Sixth Line, south of Steeles Ave., went down an embankment and ended up in a creek. The driver got out safely and wasn't injured. Photo by Jon Borgstrom Andrew got his game back. "I'm happier, I feel better and I'm getting lots of compliments on my appearance."
