A ninth person has been arrested by police investigating the murder of a man in a stabbing in Birmingham.

Ekrimh Mena'a, 39, died on Hunters Road in the Lozells area on 30 September.

A 24-year-old man has been held on suspicion of murder. Eight others have already been arrested in connection with the attack.

West Midlands Police has also repeated an appeal to trace two men who detectives want to speak to in connection with the incident.

It asked anyone with information on Mohamed Mohamoud, 25, and Dahir Ali, 28, to contact officers, rather than approach them.
