TWO people have been charged following a fight in Failsworth.
Daniel Kamara, aged 22, of Beswick Drive, and a 17-year-old from Failsworth – who cannot be named for legal reasons – have been charged with Section 18 assault and violent disorder.
They remain in custody to appear at Tameside Magistrates’ Court today (Wednesday, April 24).
The charges follow reports of a large fight outside the Royal Oak Hotel pub on Oldham Road on Sunday 21 April 2019.
The 21-year-old man was treated at hospital for stab wounds and has since been discharged.
A 24-year-old man, who has since been formally identified as Joe O’Brien from Blackley, died.
Anyone with dashcam footage from the time of the incident is encouraged to send it to scd.cctv@gmp.police.uk.
