A passing motorist posted on social media: "Massive fight outside the college today causing disruption. Maybe 40 youths fighting, kicking cars and throwing things."
Geoff Bert Hunter posted: "Sarah Coombes our local Labour MP is looking into crime in West Bromwich. It's no good spending millions revamping the town centre when people won't shop there because of this type of behaviour."
