A teenager was stabbed to death in a case of mistaken identity, detectives believe.

Muhammad Hassam Ali, 17, was attacked in Birmingham city centre and later died from his injuries.

West Midlands Police have launched a manhunt to find Muhammad's killer and have renewed an appeal for information.

The force said the attack, which happened in Victoria Square, is not thought to be gang-related.

Victoria Square is one of the largest pedestrian areas of the city, next to the Council House and the Town Hall and near shops and bars.

Muhammad was rushed to hospital after the attack and was later pronounced dead.
