Greater Manchester Police's press office said it would not be commenting on the crash as it had not been informed about it by the Serious Collision Investigation Unit or the Force Duty Officer.

The B6393, or Thorp Road, had been taped off near the junction with Oldham Road, with traffic stopped in both directions.

Cones and ‘no entry’ signs were blocking the road, which is located near GMP headquarters, from being accessed by road users from Oldham Road.
