A taxi driver was robbed at knife point Monday in the Montclair subdivision.

The 44-year-old victim was driving three men to the 15000 Block of Mill Spring Drive, off Holleyside Drive and Spring Branch Boulevard at 3:34 a.m. when one of the men pulled out a knife and demanded money, said Prince William police spokesman Jonathan Perok.

After the robbery, the three fled the scene and police were able to locate the three men, one of which has been charged.

His court date was not released.
