Taxi driver returns £2m violin

A violinist treated a taxi driver to a special concert after he returned his violin worth two million pounds to him.

Philippe Quint left the 285-year-old instrument in the back of the car when he caught a taxi from an airport in America.

But the next day, the taxi driver tracked him down and gave the violin back to him.

Mr Quint was so grateful he rewarded the honest cabbie by playing a special concert in the airport's taxi rank.

Mr Quint said he couldn't describe how he felt when he realised he'd lost the violin.

Mohamed Khalil was also given a medal

"I was frantically looking for the violin that whole morning," he said.

As well as the special performance, he gave the taxi driver, Mohamed Khalil, $100, which is around £50, to thank him.
