Two men have been charged following a burglary in Bloxwich.

West Midlands Police responded to an incident on April 7, after a business on Bloxwich High Street was broken-into in the early hours of the morning.

The suspects, both male, were detained at around 6am on the same day, with officers recovering a screwdriver, crowbar, torch, and a kitchen knife from the area.

Michael Evans, aged 41, and Daniel Hickingbottom, aged 44, both of no fixed address, have been charged with burglary, going equipped for burglary and possession of a knife.

A West Midlands Police Spokesperson said: “We know a great deal of time, energy and money is put into running a business and we won't tolerate crimes which impact on you.”

The pair were remanded to appear before Birmingham Magistrates Court on April 8.
