BRONX, NEW YORK, January 14- A robber pumped three bullets into a livery cab driver in Soundview over the weekend and the whole incident was caught on tape.

Police released stills from surveillance video inside the livery cab which shows the thief pulling out a handgun. The incident took place at around 5:10 a.m. on January 13. The driver, 54-year-old Raphael Martinez, picked up his fare at the corner of White Plains Road and Lafayette Avenue. Inside the car the suspect displayed a revolver and demanded cash. The robber then opened fire hitting the driver three times.

The driver is listed in stable condition. Cops say the gunman fled on foot without the cash.

The suspect is described as a black male in his 20s with a goatee. He was last seen wearing a tan bubble jacket and a dark hoodie "ABERCROMIE" written on the front.
