A murder inquiry has been initiated after a 23-year-old man was brutally stabbed at a club in Birmingham. On December 26, the man suffered fatal injuries at ‘The Crane’ dance floor on Adderley Street in Digbeth. About 30 minutes later, despite efforts to resuscitate him, he was declared dead, according to West Midlands Police.

The incident happened during a Boxing Day party where well-known techno DJ Marco Carola was playing because they believe the victim was approached by a group before being stabbed.

There were hundreds of people in the nightclub at that time. The club is currently closed because of the investigation underway and the CCTV examination. The whole area will be under strict supervision by neighbourhood police to provide reassurance to other residents.


The man's family has been informed, according to police, and will receive support from specialised authorities. Anyone with information is urged to contact police authorities via Live Chat and reference log 3792 from December 26.

Anyone with necessary information related to this case could also call Crimestoppers anonymously at 0800 555 111.

Adderley Street, where the notorious nightclub ‘The Crane’ is located, is a quiet road close to Digbeth and there is currently very little traffic, according to reporter Josh Sandiford who was at the crime scene. Numerous auto garages, storage facilities, and a bus depot are located there. Blue crime scene tape has been placed across the nightclub's entrance, covering a rather minor police presence.
