Police and firefighters have tonight condemned youths who fired rockets at passing motorists and a fire engine.
The incidents were reported during a busy bonfire night otherwise enjoyed safely by thousands of people across Greater Manchester.
But the emergency services said the pyrotechnic fun was spoiled by a number of serious incidents, including one in Cheetham Hill where rockets were fired at passing motorists and and another in Eccles where a firework was thrown at firefighters extinguishing a bonfire.
