A teenager has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a driver was "rammed off a road" and fatally stabbed in Castle Bromwich.

The 16-year-old was questioned earlier today after a man in his 50s was stabbed to death in Birmingham. He has now been released on bail, under strict conditions, police have said.

West Midlands Police have said the victim, Kelvin Ward, was found with serious injuries on Chester Road just after 8pm on Tuesday evening.

They believe the car he was travelling in was rammed, and allege he was then attacked by a group of people - who later fled the scene.

Kelvin's family have paid tribute to him, saying he was a "loving partner, father son and friend to many".

The statement read: "We would like to thank everyone for their loving messages and support at this very sad time.

"Kelvin was a loving partner, father, son, brother and friend to many. He was very well loved, vibrant, full of life and will be greatly missed," it added.

Police are appealing for potential witnesses to come forward, and say their thoughts are with Kelvin's family.

Detective Chief Inspector Dave Sanders, of West Midlands Police, said: "Our thoughts remain with Kelvin’s family at this deeply distressing time.  "It’s important that we understand what happened and that we get answers for Kelvin’s family.

"I’m really keen to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time and anyone who has any dashcam footage, to get in touch. It could be vital to our investigation."
