RCMP are investigating after a cab driver was robbed at knifepoint and had his cab stolen.

At around 1 a.m. Sunday morning, La Ronge RCMP say they responded to a 911 call on the Lac La Ronge Indian Band.

Police learned the customer in the cab showed a large knife to the cab driver and demanded he hand over all of his cash.

The suspect fled the scene in the cab with an undetermined amount of cash. Police located the cab, abandoned, a short time later.
