She suffered a head injury in the crash just after 18:00 BST and remained in hospital, the West Midlands force added.

Officers have released CCTV footage of a man and woman in connection with the investigation.

Appealing for anyone who recognised the pair, or who may have witnessed the crash, to come forward, police said they needed to speak to the duo urgently.
