A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after one man died and another was seriously injured in a shooting in Birmingham.

Police were called to Rotton Park Road in Edgbaston, just before 11pm on Friday, to reports that two people had been shot.

A man in his 20s was found in a car but pronounced dead at the scene.

Another man, in his 30s, was found injured at a bus stop and taken to hospital where he remains in a critical condition, West Midlands Police added.

Firearms officers arrested a man in his 30s on suspicion of murder just before 12.30pm. He is still in custody.

Police remain at the scene and the roads are closed. The force said reassurance patrols will also take place.

Detective Inspector Nick Barnes said: “This is a tragic incident and we have been working through the night to understand exactly what happened.

“We’ve already made good progress and apprehended a suspect, but I still need to hear from anyone who was in the area that we haven’t already spoken to.

“This happened near the busy junction with City Road and you may have dash cam or mobile phone footage from the area shortly before 11pm.

“We really need to hear from you so we can create as clear a picture as possible of what happened.”

Officers are urging anyone with information to get in touch, with anonymous tips also taken via Crimestoppers.
