Police have launched a murder investigation after the second man was found this morning.

West Midlands Police were called to Tettenhall Road after a man was discovered with serious head injuries at just after 7am.

Tragically, nothing could be done to save him.

While the investigation is still in its early stages, police believe the incident followed “disorder” in the area.

The area between Hill and Clark Road remains sealed off as investigators carry out their enquiries to establish exactly what happened.

Police are examining CCTV and carrying out house to house enquiries but still want to hear from anyone with information. 

West Midlands Police can be contacted via Live Chat on their website, or by calling 101, and quote log 651 of 29 May.
