Residents living on the street, where house prices reach in excess of £400,000, expressed shock at the murder.

Tony Foster, who lives yards from the scene, said: “It is really concerning.

“This type of thing doesn’t happen around here at all, so it is really unusual.”

Joan Davies, 59, added: “This is a pleasant neighbourhood with families and older people so it is shocking to have such violence on our doorsteps.

“I feel so sorry for the poor boy’s family who have lost a son in such awful circumstances. Knife crime is a very real problem in Birmingham.”

Last year, official figures showed there was a 45 per cent rise in the number of fatal stabbing victims aged 16 to 24 in England and Wales.

In the West Midlands, there were a total of 19 deaths from knife crime.

In the year ending September 2018 there were 18 homicides in the city, up from a low of 11 in the year to September 2014.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
