POLICE closed an Oldbury road after a man arrived at hospital with a leg wound.

Staff at Birmingham’s City Hospital called officers at 9pm yesterday (Monday) after the man showed up at A&E for treatment.

It’s understood he sustained the injury while in Tat Bank Road earlier that evening.

A spokesman for West Midlands Police said: “At this stage it’s unclear how he came about his injury.

"The road was cordoned off to allow for a forensic search in the hope that will provide some clarity.”
