The youngsters were caught up in a "murderous" feud between two armed groups on May Day, during an afternoon shooting which triggered a high-speed car chase prosecutors say was “straight from the movie director’s script”.

The video a beige Ford Focus being reversed down the road, outside people's houses, as a masked gunman in the front passenger seat stands up and shoots behind the car. As the Ford comes to a halt, the driver can be seen winding his window down before turning and firing shots behind him.

After the car speeds off, a Mini races past at high speed, following shortly afterwards by a man on a motorbike.

The video was played at Birmingham Crown Court as part of the prosecution case against Kian Durnin, of Milton Road; Martinho De-Sousa of Deansfield Road, and Tireq McIntosh of Valley Road, all Wolverhampton.
