A number of high-profile crimes saw Coventry hit its highest monthly figure for offences for 2019 in March.

A total of 2,921 offences were recorded across the city in March, which included a murder investigation being launched after the body of a man was found inside a flat in Spon End.

Other incidents that made the news included a student being stabbed in the head during a botched robbery at Godiva Place student flats and a man who was left with "potentially life-changing injuries" after a stabbing in Osborne Road, Earlsdon, on March 8.

March's total topped that of February (2,578) and January (2,729).
