Around 20 people involved in mass brawl involving weapons on quiet estate

Around 20 people were involved in a mass brawl that broke out on a quiet estate in Trafford on Wednesday night (December 7). Weapons were used in the attack, which saw police swarm to the area shortly after 10pm.

Officers were called to reports of a 'large-scale violent disorder' on Thirsk Avenue, in Sale, involving as many as 20 people, with some seen to be carrying and using weapons.

The group then ran off as police arrived, but one man, aged 37, was arrested on suspicion of public disorder and remains in custody for further questioning. A black Mercedes and a number of weapons were also seized from the vehicle at the scene, with an investigation to identify those involved now underway.
