A man suffered serious injuries when he was hit by a vehicle during an early hours incident in Moss Side. Detectives are investigating following reports of a disturbance on Great Western Street, near the junction of Princess Road, last Thursday morning.
Officers were scrambled to the scene just before 5.30am. Police say witnesses described seeing a group of men fighting before a vehicle was driven at a man. The victim later turned up at hospital and required treatment for a serious hip injury. Two men, aged 21 and 31, were arrested on suspicion of affray in connection with the incident. They have since been released under investigation.
Photographs showing the aftermath of the incident show a flattened street sign. Enquiries are ongoing and police are urging assistance from the public.
