A resident who asked not be to named said “She lived on the thirteen floor on the Edgbaston House at Sedgley Close. I heard the woman screaming the little girls name after the man lashed out at the little girl. The mum ran off with her children and returned with two other men who then stabbed the man.”   A rapid response paramedic rushed to the scene whilst Police threw up cordon tape in the garden area of the tower block. Other residents witnessed the man being worked on by medics in the garden area for well over an hour before he was rushed off to the Queen Alexandra hospital in Portsmouth. https:///youtu.be/3sYq8PZI1WU
