Stop-and-search powers have been stepped up in two areas of Bury after a car plunged into water following an 'altercation'.
Two men were arrested on suspicion of making threats to kill after an incident that culminated near the Pilsworth Fishery yesterday afternoon (Thursday). There was a huge emergency services presence beside the water after a vehicle had careered off Aviation Road down a grass verge.
Police said an 'altercation' had broken out between passengers in two vehicles before the car plunged into the water. A man in his 40s suffered 'superficial injuries' while two men were taken into custody to be questioned on suspicion of criminal damage, public order and making threats to kill.
