There were reports of shots being fired between two Fiestas travelling on Deans Road, in broad daylight, just after 5pm on Friday.

Within minutes, there was a 'disorder' on Willenhall Road near to the Shell garage on the junction with Neachells Lane.

A car was found abandoned by police with damage to one of its windows and later the same day a 20-year-old man took himself to hospital with a stab wound to the leg, where he was arrested on suspicion of violent disorder.
