Detective Constable Sarah McDonnell has today (29/10) released CCTV footage of a man - wearing a red cap - she would like to speak to after a man was stabbed outside Medway Tower on Cromwell Street in Nechells, at around 8AM on Saturday 23rd August. The man, aged 31, suffered eight stab wounds following an confrontation with another man and spent several days in hospital. Fortunately he is continuing to make a full recovery, but detectives urgently need to trace the man responsible. DC McDonnell, said: ”The man had attended a gathering in a flat with a friend although he had not been invited and was not known to any of the people there. After words were exchanged with the victim, they went outside and got into a fight where the unknown man produced a knife. I urgently need anyone who knows the man or saw him on that Bank Holiday weekend to contact me. I would also like to appeal to the man with him to come forward to help us with our enquiries.” Officers arrived at the scene moments after the incident but the man had fled the scene. Forensic specialists cordoned off the scene to search for clues and everyone at the gathering was spoken to, but the man is yet to be identified. The CCTV footage were recovered from the tower block’s systems and police are now appealing for anyone who recognises the man to come forward. He is described as aged around 27 and Somalian. He was wearing a striped short sleeved polo shirt and a distinctive red cap. Please call WMP on 101 if you have ANY information.
