Two Stabbed Outside Manchester College

Police are appealing for information after two teenagers were stabbed outside a college in North Manchester.

Police were called at around 11.10pm today, Thursday 24 November 2016, to a report that two teenagers had been stabbed on Chorlton Street, North Manchester.


Emergency services attended and a 17-year-old boy was taken to hospital with a stab wound to his chest and an 18-year-old man was taken to hospital with a stab wound to his back.

They are both receiving treatment for their injuries.


Officers have recovered a knife from the scene and are appealing for anyone with information to come forward.


Chief Inspector Gareth Parkin of GMP’s City of Manchester team, said: “We currently have two people with serious injuries in hospital so it is imperative that anyone with information comes forward and helps us with our investigation."


“We have recovered a knife from the scene, which will be forensically examined but we still need people to contact us with any information that they have." 


“I’d like to reassure the community that we have a number of highly skilled officers working on this investigation and will continue to carry out extensive enquiries.”


Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
