The gun and acid murder of a "much-loved family man" has torn apart a community where "nothing happens".
Liam Smith was found dead in the street on Kilburn Drive in Shevington on the evening of Thursday, November 24. Initial investigations from Greater Manchester Police showed the 38-year-old dad was shot dead and had also been the victim of an acid attack.
The murder is the first fatal shooting in Greater Manchester for two years and has sparked an intense manhunt. Detective Chief Inspector Gina Brennand, who is leading GMP's investigation, said she has "a team of detectives working around the clock" to track down the murder weapon and killer.
