A councillor has appealed for Salfordians to help identify an attacker who stabbed a man possibly "for his shopping" in a supermarket car park. The 62-year-old victim who suffered serious injuries after being knifed four times is a carer for his disabled dad.
The incident happened at about 4.30 pm yesterday as the victim left Aldi at Salford Precinct. It came just two weeks after 31-year-old Tyron Riley was stabbed to death in nearby Clarendon Park.
As police step up a manhunt to find the culprit of yesterday's attack it is undertood his victim remains in hospital in intensive care. Police are checking CCTV in the area in the hope that it will have captured the attacker on film.
