Birmingham headlines 31 March: Utilita Arena pickpocket Dumitru Daniel Gusata jailed
A professional pickpocket was given a prison sentence after being caught red-handed. Police found him dressed in a woman's swimsuit under his clothes. Dumitru Daniel Gusata was arrested at a concert at the Utilita Arena on Friday March 24. He was subsequently sentenced to four months.

The gunman who shot dead John Jones after leading a gang of masked men into his family home in Stourbridge is facing life in prison. Ravi Talware was found guilty of murder. Five others - two of which are youths - were also convicted following the incident.

The family of a man who died after being assaulted in a West Bromwich pub have paid tribute to a "loving and devoted dad." Matthew Adams was assaulted at the Gough Arms in West Bromwich Sunday but sadly died by Thursday after being taken to hospital. Detectives have begun a murder investigation.
