Detective Inspector Andrew Naismith, from GMP’s Major Incident Team, said: “This investigation is already moving at considerable pace and we have now secured a murder charge as part of our work.
“There is still much to do, and our officers are carefully combing through all available evidence to build a picture of the events of that day.
“I am aware of footage of the incident circulating online, and I would ask people to not share this footage due to ongoing proceedings, and out of respect for the boy’s family, who I would remind people are grieving at this time.
“As we continue with our investigation, I would urge anyone with information to please get in touch – either to GMP directly or via Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
