POLICE and a taxi company are trying to trace a British passenger who left his passport, a boarding card and cash in a cab on Sunday.

Driver Liu Jun told Shanghai Daily that three foreign passengers got into his car at the Shanghai Baolong Hotel on Yixian Road at around 10am and asked to go to the Shanghai JC Mandarin Hotel on Nanjing Road.

When his next passenger got into the cab, Liu discovered that the foreign group had left a jacket under a seat.
