Mohammed Busharat, 24, was pronounced dead in hospital after a shot was fired by a gunman in Villa Road, Lozells, on Wednesday evening.

It is thought the victim is the younger brother of Mohammed Sabir who was shot dead on Lozells Road in 2003.

There have also been a number of other violent incidents in the Newtown and Lozells area in recent weeks.
