Ambush in the Car Park
When a teenager is left fighting for his life after a stabbing in a car park, forensics must prove whether two brothers arrested nearby are the attackers or victims.
It’s the early hours of the morning when a frantic teenage girl calls 999 to say that her friend has been attacked and stabbed in a car park. Police rush to the scene, where they find a 16-year-old boy with a life-threatening stab wound to his stomach.
While his life hangs in the balance, the case is escalated to West Midlands Police’s homicide team, and forensic investigators get to work. They discover two discarded weapons at the scene - a kitchen knife and a machete.
