Two teenagers were injured during a robbery in a Coventry park over the weekend.

West Midlands Police were called by a number of members of the public to Coundon Hall Park Pavilion at around 8.30pm on Saturday (5 August).

It’s believed the victims were approached by a group of men from another car.

One of the victims was stabbed, while the other was clipped by the attackers’ car.

The attackers stole the car that the victims had been in before both vehicles left the scene.

Neither of the victims’ injuries are believed to be life-threatening or life-changing.

Police are following up a number of lines of enquiry and anyone with information has been asked to get in touch via Live Chat, quoting log 3859 of 5 August.
