Police have been called in to investigate after trees were hacked down by 'a group armed with chainsaws' in a Tameside neighbourhood.
At least a dozen mature trees are believed to have been cut down on woodland off Stalyhill Drive and Wildbank Chase, near Mottram Rise in Stalybridge.
The woodland was first targeted between Christmas and New Year, before a group returned to continue cutting trees a week later, the Manchester Evening News has been told.
