Three of the men that police would like to speak to as part of their investigation

CCTV images of four men police would like to speak to in connection with an investigation into a disorder between football fans have been released.

Videos circulating on social media showed confrontations between fans on Lichfield Street in Wolverhampton city centre, after the home team beat Stoke City at Molineux Stadium on 29 August.

There was fighting between groups and items being thrown after the disorder broke out, West Midlands Police said.

So far, five men have been arrested, four of whom were subsequently charged with public order offences and are due to appear in court.

The accused were all released on bail to appear at Dudley Magistrates' Court later this month, with conditions stopping them going to football matches and being in the city centre.

As the investigation continues, the force has urged anyone with information about the whereabouts of the men who feature in the pictures to get in contact with police.
