At 01.39 night to Monday, Uppsala police received a call from the Academic Hospital. There, a taxi driver was cared for after being beaten at Nybro Grill in central Uppsala.

- He has been called in by three men who want to taxi. These guys want to go to Stockholm. Then they are informed that there is an advance payment for trips to another city, which seems to have provoked the men in question, says Sanja Vukicevic, RLC commander in the Mittel police region.

Two of the men must then have hit the driver's face with their fists.

- He has had injuries to his face, but is not seriously injured, says Sanja Vukicevic.

No trace of the perpetrators

The taxi driver was then pushed to the emergency room by a colleague.

- We got to know this when the person in question was in the hospital, says Sanja Vukicevic.

At 04 o'clock, the driver could be heard by the police.

They have no trace of the perpetrators at this time.
