Police have sealed off a busy road in Birmingham city centre after a teenager was stabbed.

Two crime scenes a short walk from eachother are guarded by officers, one opposite Moor Street Railway Station and the other on Carrs Lane.

Bloodied first aid and tissues were visible on the path close to scaffolding and three busses were parked up within the crime scene.

The attack comes just 3 days after 12-year-old Leo Ross was stabbed-to-death in the Hall Green area of the city and police spoke of their efforts to tackle knife crime.
