Police have released further CCTV images as part of an investigation into a series of car-jackings in Birmingham, following an appeal in December.

Officers have already recovered two of the stolen vehicles, a Ford Kuga from Pentos Drive in Sparkhill and a grey coloured Ford Focus from Overton Close in Hall Green.

The cars had false number plates and were used to steal petrol from the Shell Garage on Stockfield Road on several occasions.

A silver Ford Focus with the number plate VK11 GPO was also seen leaving the garage without paying and failed to stop for officers the following day - but has not been found.

Detectives believe the men in the images are connected to the car-jackings.
