Police officers hit with bike while making arrest in Birmingham

Shocking footage shows three police officers being battered over the head with a bicycle after violence erupted along a city street in broad daylight.

West Midlands Police were called to Villa Road, in Lozells, Birmingham, to arrest two men outside a shop before the chaotic scenes unfolded this week.

Cops can be seen calling for back-up as they struggled to detain one of the men, who leaves a police officer lying on the ground with a head injury during the struggle.
