The barbaric murder of a ‘much-loved family man’ has left neighbours in a quiet, peaceful corner of Wigan in shock.
Liam Smith was found dead in the street on Kilburn Drive, in Shevington, on Thursday (November 24) evening. He was 38-years-old.
Initial investigations show that Liam was fatally shot dead and had 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 for his killer, GMP says.
