A 21-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder remains in custody for questioning after a 47 year old man was stabbed to death in Droylsden in the early hours of this morning.
The incident took place just after 1.00 am on Redesmere Close.

“Our main priority at this stage is ensuring his next of kin are located and given the full support that they need as they begin to come to terms with this devastating news.
“We currently have one man in custody for questioning but our enquiries will continue and I would encourage anyone who may be holding any information that could assist us to get in touch as a matter of urgency. Even the smallest bit of information could prove vital to our investigation.”
