'Murderous' feud between rival groups led to children being shot at playground, court told
The trial is taking place at Birmingham Crown Court (PA)

A trial has been shown CCTV footage of shots being fired from a stolen car towards a children’s playground, hitting an 11-year-old girl and a boy aged 15, during a “murderous” feud between two armed groups.

Jurors were told both victims were struck in the leg by bullets at a park in Shelley Road, Wolverhampton, on May Day, during an afternoon shooting which triggered a high-speed car chase “straight from the movie director’s script”.
