Footage of hooded thugs firing shots at police officers and a force helicopter during this month's riots has been released.
West Midlands Police have taken the "unusual step" in issuing the CCTV images of a group of 30-40 young men in the Newtown area of Birmingham on the night of Tuesday, August 9.
They hope the "disturbing" footage will encourage members of the public to come forward.

Personally I'd shoot some of them. The namby 'unusual steps' culture is why this is happening...
