A police officer has sustained injuries after a brick was thrown into a police car through the rear window
Police have launched an appeal after an officer was hit after a brick was thrown through the window of her car in Birmingham.
The incident took place when two officers were sitting in a marked police car doing some paperwork in Maytree Close, Chemsley Wood at around 11.15pm on January 31.
While waiting for recovery as they had a flat tyre, a brick was thrown through the rear window, hitting one of the officers on the head, causing visible injuries.
The officer − who doesn’t wish to be named − suffered a head injury which required medical treatment from our ambulance colleagues.
West Midlands Police said it was fortunate “she is ok”, although the officer “is shaken and upset about what happened”.
On Twitter, Soho Road Police described the incident as “disgraceful”.
In a statement, the force described the suspect as “riding a bike and was dressed in black clothing” and have asked anyone with information to contact them on 101.
