Clubgoers reportedly filmed the final moments of a 23-year-old footballer’s life after he was stabbed to death on a Birmingham dancefloor.

Cody Fisher was on a night out at The Crane nightcub in Digbeth on Boxing Day when he was approached by a group of people on the dancefloor and attacked.

He received medical attention but emergency service personnel were unable to save his life. A video, shared with Birmingham Live, appears to show Mr Fisher lying where he fell, while a voice can be heard saying “My man is dead”.
