A California taxi passenger may have an anger problem, but he's still a generous tipper.

Police in Sacramento got a report that a man pulled a knife on a cab driver during a dispute over the weekend, but still made sure to pay his fare - plus tip.

The Sacramento Bee newspaper said the rider argued with the driver about his desired destination on Saturday then pulled out a folding-blade knife, prompting the driver to run away on foot.

The passenger also fled - after leaving his cab fare and a tip.

Police say the passenger has not been found.
