A man has been charged with wounding over a stabbing in Birmingham.

Police said a man in his 40s was injured on Dudley Road just before 01:30 BST on Saturday and remained in hospital in a stable condition.

Reasha Geddes, 34, was also charged with possession of a knife and was remanded in custody to appear before magistrates in Birmingham on Monday, the West Midlands force added.

Police said the injured man had been pushing a trolley of belongings, and that social media reports that he was with a baby in a pushchair were untrue.

Video showing the incident formed part of officers' investigation, the force explained.

"At this stage, detectives are not looking for anyone else as part of the investigation and it is being treated as an isolated incident," a spokesperson said.
