01:20 These individuals were swapping weapons between each other so

01:30 that they could take it in turns to attack Bailey.

01:33 They tried to take a photo of him at the scene, but members of the public came and

01:37 screamed and shouted and they left in the two cars.

01:41 Bailey was left severely injured on the floor.

01:45 Police were on the scene within three, four, five minutes, and

01:48 they were able to start trying to save Bailey's life.

01:51 What's haunted me and must have haunted the officers that were present doing

01:55 the CPR was that they captured Bailey's last words before he died.

02:00 He thought he was gonna die, and

02:02 he asked the officers to get a message to his mom to say that he loved her.

02:05 With the help of the public, we started to get names coming through.

02:10 So I'm really, really grateful to the public because they provided

02:13 the names of the people that were involved.

02:15 We found some forensic evidence at the scene which linked us to one of the

02:19 suspects, and then from the CCTV, we were later able to track them and

02:22 identify who was involved.

02:24 We as West Midlands Police are committed to tackling knife crime.

02:27 We're working extremely hard with our partners, with teachers,

02:31 with youth justice services and the health service to try and tackle it.

02:36 We can't tackle it alone, though, and we ask people.

02:38 We're asking the community, family members, and people that might know anyone

02:44 that's getting involved in knife crime or even thinking about carrying knives,

02:47 to report that.

02:50 You can go onto our website and you can do that anonymously.

02:53 That reporting might save somebody's life.
