West Midlands Police are appealing for information after a man was stabbed in Coventry.

The 20 year old victim was found injured on Stoney Stanton Road on Monday (6th January) in the afternoon.

Officers believe the victim was walking along the street when the occupants of a black Ford Puma got out, chased and then attacked him.

The 20 year old sought safety in a nearby shop and members of the community stepped in to help, whilst the two attackers fled the area.

The victim was taken to hospital for his injuries but they are not believed to be life threatening.

West Midlands Police are currently reviewing all CCTV possibilities and are keen to speak with anyone who can assist with the investigation.

Police are interested in hearing from anybody who was driving through the area and may have dash cam footage.
