A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “It is a police matter so we can’t go into the level of detail that we usually can, but we did send a rapid response vehicle and an ambulance crew. The man was taken to hospital.”

A West Midlands Police spokesman said: “A 40-year-old man has been arrested from his home address this morning on suspicion of wounding after another man was injured in Trinity Street last night.
