Horrific video shows a 16-year-old boy having pressure applied to his torso after being attacked, Birmingham Live reported.

Bystanders watched on as paramedics desperately tried to help the teen.

Cops said the boy suffered a stab wound to his stomach.

West Midlands Police said in a statement: “He has been taken to hospital and remains in a critical condition.

“We ask anyone with information or who may have witnessed the incident to contact us via live chat on our website or by calling 101 and quoting log 2901.”

No one has been arrested but cops said enquiries are ongoing.

The attack comes less than 24 hours after another 16-year-old was left fighting for their life after an knife ambush in South London.

A boy screamed “mum, mum” after a gang armed with zombie knives jumped out of a Land Rover and repeatedly stabbed him, horrified witnesses said.

Police were called to Brixton around 6.15pm on Monday night following reports that a 16-year-old boy had been stabbed.

Horrified eyewitnesses said four thugs jumped out of the 4×4 and started stabbing the boy who was left fighting for life in hospital.

Locals said the boy was “dragged” along by his bike and fell to the ground before he was attacked.

Metropolitan Police Commissioner Dame Cressida Dick said five weapons, including two Rambo-style knives, two “Zombie” knives and a kitchen knife, were found at the scene.

Meanwhile in Smethwick, three men were stabbed and another plunged from a height to escape horrific scenes overnight.

West Midlands Police have now launched an investigation after rushing to the scene about 7pm to find four men badly injured.


A spokesperson said: “It’s believed some of the men suffered injuries having jumped from a window to escape the disorder.

“Our armed police provided fast aid to the victims.”

In Wembley, North London, Drekwon Patterson, 16, was chased down a street by a gang before being stabbed to death.
