I had to work early this morning because of fresh snow downfall at 6am, so started heading to work at about 5:30 this morning. As I'm walking, I hear some yelling, some drunk yelling. I look down the road, and there is a cab. Cabbie is sitting in the car, passenger in the back, and I could hear this guy yelling, I couldn't understand what he was saying, but all of a sudden, I see this guy wrap his hands around the neck of the cab driver. I can now see the car moving from side to side, they were fighting inside the cab. I run down the road as fast as I can and when I get there, the passenger is seiriously trying to kill this poor guy by choking him and giving him shots in the back of the head.

I try to open the door but it is locked, and the cabbie doesn't see me there, so I take this huge ice chunk to smash the window of the passenger side to stop him. ice breaks. No one is around and I start freaking out a bit, so with my adrenaline, and my huge winter boots on, I kick the window and few times, and after the 3rd blow it shatters. I immediatly hit the passenger in the side of the face, and while he was distracted, I unlocked his door, opened it, and while I was doing this, the cabbie had time to get out of his cab. I pulled this asshole out of the cab, and he's yelling "I'm going to kill you **** (racial term)" The cabbie takes his huge flashlight he has, and cracks him over and over in the head, it sounded like a coconut, and this guy would NOT stay down and kept coming at both of us. Afraid he might pull out a knife we did the next best thing, we both defended ourselves the best we could without severly fucking this guy up. The cabbie kicked this guys ass man!! He took his big ass flashlight to finally kncok him out cold. The guy was a bloody mess, but so was the cabbie.

I get on his radio and call for help. Cops come within minutes, check the situation, asked me a ton of questions, and let me go home. I am know getting honored as Bravery to helping a fellow human being from the police at the city hall next week. I get a medal, a plaque, and recognition for my help.

I can't just stand by and let something like this happen. I know, things could have turned out worse, but imagine how I would have felt if I read that a cabbie got chocked to death, and I could have stopped it.

its a good thing you had to go work early man. other wise if it wasnt for you that cab driver could be dead :O

i woulda been scared too, but at least no one was hurt (well.. hurt to the point of death lol)
