Police are asking the public for help after a man in his 80s was assaulted in a car park in Perry Barr.

The man was assaulted by two men on 6 September shortly before 3pm in a car park at One Stop Shopping Centre in Walsall Road.

The two men who attacked him fled the area after and thankfully the man's injuries were not thought to be life-threatening or life-changing.

Officers are releasing this image in case anyone in the area at the time saw these two and knows who they might be.

Police are carrying out further enquiries in the area and are especially keen to hear from any drivers in the area who may have dashcam footage showing the two riding an e-bike.
