A West Midlands Police officer remains in hospital today after being hit by a stolen car in Weoley Castle late last night (Friday 18th November).
Traffic officers were pursuing a stolen Ford Fiesta, which failed to stop, just after 11.30pm.
An officer was deploying a stinger to aid the pursuit when he was hit by the car at the junction of Long Nuke Road and Shenley Lane.
The pursuit continued, and officers were able to bring the stolen car to a safe stop and arrest two men from inside.
Both men, aged 32 and 46, were arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving and remain in custody for questioning.
The injured officer was taken to hospital to be treated for a number of fractures. He remains in hospital and is being supported.
