We have released images of two men we want to speak to after a man suffered serious injuries in a car fire at a petrol station in Dudley last Thursday (2 June).
The 20-year-old was doused in petrol and set on fire as he was sitting in a car on the forecourt of Texaco service station on Himley Road, Brierley Hill at around 7pm. He remains in hospital in a serious but stable condition.
Detectives want to speak to Stephen Burden, aged 30 who is wanted in connection with the incident.
