Police have arrested a man in connection with a liquid attack in Solihull following a media appeal.

A 23-year-old local man handed himself in this morning (July 21) following an appeal for information after a man was squirted with what is believed to have been cleaning fluid outside a Solihull pub on Tuesday.

Witnesses said the attacker claimed the liquid was acid which hit a victim in the face, as this website reported yesterday.

The incident took place at around 8pm outside a pub in Dickens Heath, Solihull.




A man is in custody where he is being questioned about what happened.

Anyone who has not yet spoken to police who has information about the incident is asked to contact PC Spencer via 101 (ext: 891 3092) or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
