The police were working on a joint operation with the Trading Standards to crack down on alleged illegal traders along Coventry Road when they were attacked by the flying missiles on Saturday, April 15, as per the report in BirminghamLive.
According to one officer, the police were hit by the bottle but were not seriously injured. During the attack, three vehicles were damaged. Two council officials were also reportedly kicked and spat at.
