Two men have been jailed over a machete attack in Wolverhampton. The violence against another man unfolded on Barcroft Road on the afternoon of 13 February.
At Wolverhampton Crown Court on 21 November, Faisal Hussain, 20, of Goldhill Road, Birmingham, was jailed for six years after admitting at an earlier hearing to conspiracy to commit grievous bodily harm (GBH), and possession of a bladed article.
Jassdeep Singh, 21, of Ingestre Road, Wolverhampton, was jailed for four years after a jury found him guilty of GBH.
West Midlands Police said officers carried out extensive CCTV inquiries to identify those involved and arrested Singh and Hussain a month after the attack.
Det Const Leah Povey said: "This was a horrific attack in broad daylight.
"There's no justification for such extreme violence and these two men will rightly be spending time behind bars for their actions."
Faisal Hussain and Jassdeep Singh have both been jailed for their involvement in an attack where a man was assaulted and attacked with machetes on Barcroft Road, Wolverhampton, at around 4.30pm on 13 February this year.
An investigation was immediately launched and West Midlands Police officers carried out extensive CCTV enquiries to identify those involved and arrested Singh, and Hussain, later that month.
Hussain, of Goldhill Road, Handsworth, Birmingham, was jailed for six years after the 20-year-old previously pleaded guilty to conspiring to commit grievous bodily harm (GBH), and possession of a bladed article.
Singh, of Ingestre Road, Wolverhampton, was jailed for four years after the 21-year-old was found guilty of GBH following a trial at Wolverhampton Crown Court earlier this year.
Detective Constable Leah Povey, from our Major Crime Team, said: "This was a horrific attack in broad daylight.
"There's no justification for such extreme violence and these two men will rightly be spending time behind bars for their actions."
