Two women have been killed in a crash in Birmingham on Boxing Day.

It happened on the junction of Kitt's Green Road and Mackadown Lane in Shard End shortly after 20:00 GMT on Tuesday.

The collision involved a BMW 4 Series, a MG ZS and a quad bike.

Two female passengers in the MG, one in her 40s and one in her 70s, were pronounced dead at the scene.

Four others, including a young child, were taken to hospital with injuries that were not believed to be life-threatening.

West Midlands Police said both the driver of the BMW and quad bike rider left the scene.

A man has since been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and another has been arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender.

Det Sgt Julie Lyman, from the serious collision investigation unit, said officers were searching for the rider of the quad bike and urged them to get in touch.
