Harrowing footage showing the moment a car ploughed into a crowd at a club's Freshers' Night leaving six people injured has emerged for the first time.

A group of men were hit by a vehicle outside The Tunnel Club in Birmingham city centre at around 3am on October 4.

Hundreds of people had gathered at the popular nightspot, which is one of the city's longest-running clubs, before the horror unfolded.

Mobile phone camera footage, obtained by the Birmz Is Grime blog, captured the violent disorder erupting on the street while onlookers can be heard screaming.

A car can be then be seen turning around before dragging a man lying in the road for several metres before it drives over him with a sickening bump.

Six people were hurt and five of those were taken to hospital for injuries which were not believed to be life-threatening.

A 22-year-old man was later arrested on suspicion of attempted murder while another man was arrested for affray.

In their last statement, West Midlands Police said: "We've arrested a man on suspicion of attempted murder after a number of people were injured when a car was driven at people in Livery Street in Birmingham on Friday morning."

"The 22-year-old was arrested at a property in the city just before 9am today (5/10) and has been taken into custody for questioning."

"We were called to disorder in Livery Street at around 3am yesterday (4/10)."

"A number of people were injured when a car was driven at a group outside The Tunnel nightclub."

"The car was then driven away from the scene. It's believed six people were injured during the incident all together, and five were taken to hospital."

"Two of the injured remain in hospital, but their injuries are not believed to be life-threatening. One of them is under arrest on suspicion of affray."

Detective Chief Inspector Dave Sproson, from Birmingham Police, said: "We're working hard to understand exactly what happened and why."

"At this stage, we believe this to have been an isolated and deliberate attack linked to an earlier incident inside the nightclub."

"The investigation continues to make good progress, but we'd still appeal for anyone with information or mobile phone images to get in touch via our dedicated website."
