This is the shocking moment the streets of a UK city were turned into a 'scene like Star Wars' after a yob went on the rampage with a firework 'rocket launcher'.
The hooded thug was captured on camera dangerously shooting at least 50 fireworks towards people in Birmingham city centre last Friday (1/11).
Men can be seen running for cover in the distance as bright red blasts flash from the end of the makeshift weapon near Aston University.
The person wielding the firework 'gun' is shown running down the street indiscriminately shooting in all directions and it's unclear whether anyone was injured.
West Midlands Police said three people were arrested and officers later seized illegal fireworks from a van in the Handsworth area of the city.
Two men, aged 18 and 19, and a 17-year-old boy were detained after fireworks were also launched at officers and police cars.
