West Midlands Police are appealing for the public's help to identify a man they believe may have information about a car theft in Birmingham. The incident occurred early on Friday, April 3, which was Good Friday, in Grove Lane, Handsworth.
The thief struck the street, which runs from Soho Road past Handsworth Park to Church Lane, shortly after 6am. Police have released a blurry image of a man they wish to speak to in connection with the theft.
Description of the Suspect
The man appears to be white with a beard. In the CCTV image, he is wearing a cap, a coat with the hood up, a darker top underneath, light blue stonewashed jeans, and white trainers.
Issuing the appeal, a West Midlands Police spokesperson said: 'Can you tell us who this is? We want to speak to him after a car was stolen from Grove Lane, Handsworth, at around 6.15am on Friday, April 3. Investigators appreciate that the image isn't very clear but hope that someone will recognise the man in the image or his clothing.'
How to Help
Anyone with information is urged to call 101 or use the Live Chat on the West Midlands Police website, quoting crime reference 20/201030/26. The police hope that despite the image quality, someone will be able to identify the individual or his distinctive clothing.
