A man was arrested this morning after he was spotted breaking car windows in the Small Heath area of Birmingham.

The management of a Sikh temple who last weekend unveiled a brand new statue to commemorate the contributions of South Asian soldiers during the First World War, have described its recent vandalism as a “despicable and cowardly act”. Despite only being unveiled on Sunday, the 10ft bronze statue has already been vandalised, with graffiti appearing on the monument last night.
