Greater Manchester Police (GMP) has issued an appeal for information following an incident on Broadstone Road, Reddish, on the evening of Saturday 24 February.

A 27-year-old passenger died when an Audi S3, travelling north east along the road, collided with the Houldsworth Mill external perimeter wall, opposite the Grey Horse Public House. 

The driver of the vehicle, a different 27-year-old man, was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and remains in custody while enquiries continue.
