Reason for Authority (Brief Summary for Publication)
  A Sec 60 was authorised today, due to the murder in High St Walsall in the early hours of 28/01/23 where weapons were used to inflict injuries that are believed to be the cause of the fatality. Due to further intelligence and incidents reported during this week, including 2 individuals arrested with weapons indicating they were intending harm, an incident where an individual was run over and attacked with a weapon and reports of groups of males in specific locations with weapons/balaclavas all within the relevant neighbourhoods of Walsall, it is believed further incidents of serious violence could occur.
