Officers from West Midlands Fire Service were dispatched to the river Stour on Mill Race Lane after reports four people were in the water.

The call for help was received at 8.17pm on New Year's Eve, crews from Stourbridge and Smethwick arrived to find the group of three men and one intoxicated woman stranded on the river bank.
