Police launched a crackdown day in a bid to hunt down the killer of a dad who was murdered in a gun-and-acid attack in Wigan.
Liam Smith, 38, was shot and doused in the chemicals in the village of Shevington on the evening of November 24. The body lay on the pavement for 15 minutes before it was discovered covered in a white powder by a passer-by.
The dad-of-two had been left on Kilburn Drive by his killer, or killers, just yards away from his home. The detective leading the investigation previously told the Manchester Evening News two chemicals were used in the attack, one acid and the other alkaline.
