Police were called to Platinum nightclub, in Tower Street, at just after 4am and found three men - two aged 19 and one 18-year-old - with serious stab wounds.

All three were taken to hospital for treatment and two have since been released for minor injuries. A 19-year-old remains in hospital with serious injuries which are not believed to be life-threatening.

Detectives are piecing together the circumstances leading up to the attacks and are appealing to any witnesses to come forward.

Inspector Stuart Bell said: "Convicting violent offenders - particularly those who use weapons - is a priority for West Midlands Police.

"We are still in the very early stages of investigating the stabbings and would appeal to anyone who was inside the Platinum nightclub or who saw the assault to come forward.

“We have been speaking to witnesses and continue to trawl CCTV but need people to call in and speak to detectives."

Anyone with information can call police on 101 or Crimstoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

It's an area I avoid walking through unless I'm late for a medical appointment or something :roll:
