URGENT APPEAL - we need you to share this crystal clear CCTV footage after an attempted murder in at a Birmingham chip shop last Friday. Our officers are working around the clock to track down the man in the footage, who was caught on camera having an altercation with the worker shortly before the attack and then fleeing the scene. The assault happened at around 3.20pm on Friday at Simply Fish and Chips in Hagley Road West in Quinton. The suspect walked into the shop and ordered some food from the 51-year-old worker. There was a dispute over the order and the man left the shop, kicking the glass in the door. The shop worker went out to ask why he had done it when the man assaulted him, stabbing him several times to the body and leaving him with multiple injuries. The suspect is described as mixed race and was wearing a grey hooded top, grey tracksuit bottoms and a black beanie hat. He ran off along Hagley Road West towards the city. We are still in the early stages of this investigation and we continue to follow up witness statements and provide reassurance patrols within the local community. The injured man remains in critical care at hospital, where he is described as being in a stable condition. Our inquiries so far have uncovered CCTV of a man we would like to speak to about the stabbing. Someone out there knows who this man is and I would urge anyone who knows his identity to contact us. Anyone with information should contact Det Sgt Shingles as soon as possible on 101 or call the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 11.
