Original Note:
The masked man in the video came to this location (Bordesley Green) armed with a knife and tried to slash the tyres of the Sky News vehicle as they fled. This crowd of "mostly Muslim, South Asian men" also attacked and pursued a crew of LBC journalists at the same time. https://x.com/SkyNews/status/1820549553029857284 https://news.sky.com/video/protesters-surround-sky-correspondent-and-slash-tyre-amid-unrest-in-birmingham-13191542 https://x.com/Fraser_Knight/status/1820532972887388328 https://www.lbc.co.uk/opinion/views/chased-muslim-men-trying-to-protect-community-police/
