Armed police pointed machine guns at people as they removed them from a house
Dramatic footage has emerged showing the moment armed police swoop on a house in Birmingham, leading out young suspects while pointing machine guns at them.
Among the people they lead out of the property in Pretoria Road is a boy believed to be aged 12.

Mobile phone footage revealed armed police leading four young people from the house.
A number of officers, police dogs and a force helicopter can clearly be seen in the video.
Children were lined up in the road covered by officers with machine guns, forced to lie down and handcuffed.
An eyewitness said he was driving along the busy road when police stopped traffic after the raid.

‘I was stuck for about 45 minutes so I just got out and started filming,’ he said.

‘The police led the kids out one by one. The youngest only looked about 11 or 12 and the oldest about 19.
‘Some were still in their night clothes and some didn’t have any shoes or slippers on.’
The bystander, who said his name was Mohammed, claimed: ‘There were loads of people watching this and many were filming.

It later turned out that they had been misinformed
‘The police were still there after I left and so were the people – two were in one van and two in another.
It was also alleged that police detained a woman nearby.
A spokeswoman for West Midlands Police said: ‘Police were called to reports of a man believed to be carrying firearms in Pretoria Road, Bordesley Green, at around 10.50am.
‘Officers and the police helicopter attended the scene but despite a thorough search no firearms were recovered and no arrests were made.
‘Appears that a call was made with good intent.’
