    In exchange for his guilty plea, prosecutors will recommend Ibrahim Seikh Ahmed serve six years.

    Sentencing will be next month at Davidson County Criminal Court Judge Randall Wyatt.

    Ahmed, 38, ran down one of his passengers, because he was angry and found it difficult to control his temper, he told police.

    The passengers who were visiting from Ohio, testified that Ahmed began making anti-Semitic remarks when he picked them up in his taxi, saying that Adolph Hitler "was a good person because he was trying to cleanse the world" of Jews. Things got heated when the cabbie dropped them off, with one of the men kicking the back of the driver's seat, and both passengers took off running.

    That's when Ahmed accelerated and hit one of them, fracturing his leg, pelvis and bones in his face. [tennessean]

    Anon. 9:04PM No. The cabbie doesn’t sound like he’s from NYC. Do you think everyone from NYC is a murderer and a terrorist?!. Only a specific group. Same group is in LA,
    Seattle, Washington and wherever that fifth column, sleeper cells, Trojan horse, etc. have embedded themselves.
