Russian-born Grammy-nominated Phillippe Quint, 34, left a £2million violin in the back of a New York taxi. The Violin is a 285 year old Stradivarius which he borrowed from U.S. philanthropists Clement and Karen Arrison. He had spent 18 months persuading the couple to allow him to use the Stradivarius and he agreed to take out a £3,000 insurance policy. Lucky for Phillippe cab driver Mohamed Khalil found the 1723 instrument in the back of his car hours later.

Phillippe Quint gave Mohamed Khalil £50 in reward and tickets to his next performance at Carnegie Hall and described the taxi driver as “my hero”.

Only £50 in reward for finding a violin that worth £2million and some tickets to Phillippe’s gig i doubt Mohamed care much for. What a tight ass!
