A man who died after he was found with stab wounds in Handsworth "had a heart of gold", his daughter has said.

Family have paid tribute to Barry Davison, 48, who died on Saturday after emergency teams were called to Uplands Road, shortly before 22:00 BST.

The statement, issued through police, said his relatives had been left "absolutely devastated".

Stewart McInnes, 43, has been charged with murder and is due to appear at Birmingham Magistrates' Court on Tuesday.

Mr Davison's daughter said: "My dad was kind, caring and genuinely had a heart of gold.

"He hasn't always made the best decisions and life hasn't always been the easiest to him, but his family, especially me, his daughter loved him more than anything.

"He will be deeply missed and loved forever."
