A large police presence, including forensics officers, the tactical aid unit and the specialist search unit, were at a property in Royton this evening for at least five hours.
One shocked neighbour described how the scene was “the biggest police response” to an incident she had seen in a long time.
Officers reportedly attended the scene, at a ground floor flat at Arden House apartments, off Shaw Street in Royton, at around 5pm on Wednesday evening.
