Minsk, Belarus - A Belarusian taxi driver helped a man escape from riot police during protests against the Government earlier this year. The video that was captured by a pedestrian shows a young man being chased by baton-wielding policemen in riot gear who then manages to jump into a taxi.

About this video

The taxi driver, who appeared to be waiting for the traffic lights to change, then apparently makes a split second judgment, zigzags around another car, briefly mounting the pavement before speeding away despite the angry shouts of the policemen.
