'I felt like I just needed to save my life'

A TAXI driver was robbed at knifepoint by a group of masked teenagers during a terrifying early-hours attack.

He picked up Aiden Taylor, Connor Fearnley and two youths near Piccadilly station.

They asked him to drive to a cash machine, before putting balaclavas on and ordering him out of the car.

One pulled a kitchen knife from his bag and waved it at the driver before demanding keys. They stole his car, before leading cops on a high-speed chase.

In a separate incident months later, Taylor, 18, and Warren Mandarin, also 18, robbed a man of his e-scooter at knifepoint as he made his way home from work. All five - including two youths who cannot be named for legal reasons - have faced justice.

The court heard that about 2am on July 7 last year, a taxi driver picked up Taylor, Fearnley, 20, and the two youths, who were under 18.
