A man in his 20s has been fatally stabbed in a West Midlands car park.

West Midlands police have arrested three men aged 25, 27 and 30 on suspicion of murder. They remain in custody for questioning as part of the force’s murder investigation.



Paramedics attempted to treat the man on Engine Lane, Brierley Hill, at about 1am on Saturday morning but he was pronounced dead at the scene.

A cordon remains in place and house to house enquiries are ongoing.



DCI Edward Foster said: “We are working to establish the circumstances around the sad death of this man. We have specialist officers supporting his family at this extremely painful and difficult time.



“Knife crime ruins lives and devastates families. We are determined to bring anyone who thinks it is acceptable to carry and use one to justice, but we need your help.”

He urged any witnesses or anyone with any information to contact police as a matter of urgency.

The incident follows a series of fatal stabbings in Dudley over the past year.
