Polish police have arrested a taxi passenger who attacked a Ukrainian Uber driver over national animosity. The incident happened on September 8 in Gdansk.

The taxi was hailed by two tipsy men. After the driver told one of the passengers that he was not allowed to get into the car with an open bottle of beer, he began to insult him, including about his nationality.

The Ukrainian student, who works part-time as a taxi driver, tried to ignore the insults of the drunk passenger. When they were halfway there, the passenger attacked the driver for no reason, punching him in the face. The taxi driver used pepper spray against the offenders.

The police found the hooligans quickly. They face criminal charges.
