Telford murder probe: Floral tributes left at scene where Telford taxi driver died
Floral tributes have been left at the scene where a taxi driver died after crashing into a tree in Telford.
The Go Carz driver, a man in his 50s, died when his taxi, a red Skoda Octavia, hit a tree in Madeley on Monday night.
Two women aged 37 and 18, and two men aged 31 and 18, were arrested on suspicion of murder and have been released under investigation this morning.
Detectives are currently investigating reports an occupant of the Skoda was involved in two arguments with the occupants of a silver Peugeot 307 shortly before the crash.
The first altercation is said to have happened close to the Tesco store on Park Avenue in Madeley and the second shortly afterwards, near to the pedestrian crossing close to the entrance of the nearby Woodlands School.
The driver suffered a cardiac arrest and was given CPR at the scene of the crash on Ironbridge Road at 10.30pm, but could not be saved.
A passenger in the Skoda, a man in his 20s, was also taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital with injuries that are not thought to be life threatening.
