Mum's shock as lethal arrow lands in garden

Joanna Szymczak was on the phone when she heard a 'bang' from the back of her Erdington house on Thursday afternoon and went to investigate.

She was horrified when she discovered an arrow on the plastic base of a kids' tennis swing ball toy, inches from an inflatable pool.

Luckily her five-year-old son and daughter, six, were at school and when her partner arrived home they dialled 999.
