It comes just a day after a man was seriously injured in the second Black Country shooting in two days.

The man, in his 20s, was shot in the arm and neck at around 10.30pm on Tuesday.

He was found in a Vauxhall car with a smashed-out window in Upper High Street, Cradley Heath, where he is believed to have driven to after being shot elsewhere.

On Monday bullets were fired towards City of Wolverhampton College in Paget Road, Wolverhampton. Nobody was injured in that incident.
