A little more video, from ground level. It gets a little graphic, in that you can see the injuries of the guy who gets run over, so watch at your own risk.

Got out of it with "serious injuries", according to the news. One of them was obviously that cut to his chin, that looks like it goes right down to the bone.

The guy who got run over, was the one who was kicking the driver's side door.

Apparently it was about 4 drunk guys getting kicked out of a cab, at 4:00am, and not taking it very well. Not sure that I'd have reacted quite the way that the cabbie did, but I certainly would have reacted somehow.

Well, I was going to type my true thoughts on the situation; however, I wasn't making much sense since I kept jumping back and fourth. So, I'll just say the guy that got ran over got what was coming to him, and soon the cabbie will get his! That was much easier to say.

The taxi driver has been charged. So has at least one of the four men who were kicked out of the cab.

There were maybe a dozen of those guys all across Toronto, when the big blackout hit.
