A TAXI passenger is being hunted after allegedly spitting at two men from a vehicle after shouting at them out of the window.

Two men were walking past Seven Dials in Brighton at around 7pm on Friday, January 20 when a man in a taxi shouted "hey lads" out of the window.

He then leant out and spat at them, his spit landing on one of the men.

The suspect allegedly laughed as the taxi continued driving.

PC Russ Watson said: “The incident was completely unprovoked as the two men were walking and didn't recognise the suspect at all.”

Police are appealing to anyone who saw what happened or recognises this man to email 101@sussex.pnn.police.uk quoting serial 271 of 21/01.
