Four men were taken to hospital with injuries following reports of fighting and a gun being fired at a car in Reedswood Lane, Birchills, at around 11.50pm on July 31.

Mohammed Sajid, aged 37, was detained at Birmingham Airport on Friday before he was due to take a flight out of the country.

He has since been charged with five counts of attempted murder and possession of an offensive weapon.

Sajid has been remanded in custody to appear at Birmingham Magistrates Court on Monday morning (August 12).
