Adrian Brock, of Lower Precinct, Coventry, was arrested near to the scene.

Officers worked quickly to gather evidence and press charges against the 44-year-old.




He has been remanded in police custody and will appear before Coventry magistrates this morning (October 4).

The 32-year-old victim was taken to hospital for treatment and his condition is described as stable.


This appears to be a targeted incident and police are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.
