Two female joggers attempted to stop the abuse but the thug pushed one of them out of the way.

He spat on Mr Ahmed, 50, before shouting ‘black c**t, you dirty f***ing p***. I’m going to smash your head in’. 

He then threw a punch at the driver before encouraging his two friends to also lash out by shouting ‘hit him now’.

The teen, wearing a black hooded Nike top and grey jogging bottoms, continued to abuse the driver who managed to defend himself.

The yob then kicked the front of Mr Ahmed’s City cab before running off with two friends.

Mr Ahmed told the Lancashire Telegraph there were around 10 yobs at the start of the attack and they dispersed before a handful returned to give him abuse.

The footage of the vile abuse has since been shared more than 29,000 times on Facebook.
