Two people have been arrested after a man was stabbed to death in Birmingham overnight.

Paramedics called us to Hunters Road in Hockley just after 8pm yesterday, but despite their efforts the 41-year-old man died at the scene.

His family has been informed.

A woman aged 37 was arrested on suspicion of murder a short time later, along with a man aged 43 who was arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender.

Officers remain at the scene today while forensic work is carried out, and while we speak to witnesses and examine CCTV.

Det Insp Michelle Thurgood said: “We are working hard to establish exactly what happened and why, and really need to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time.

“We believe there were people in the area at the time who saw what happened but have not yet been in touch with us, and it’s vital that they call us as soon as possible.”
