Police in Oldham have arrested three more people suspected of attempted murder after gunshots were fired at a chip shop in Glodwick last week

The window of a local chip shop on Minton Street had been damaged, believed to have been caused by a firearm.

Part of the road was closed off for several hours as officers carried out their enquiries and identified a suspect later arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.

Police  carried out a further arrest warrant this morning  and detained a male suspect.

Later in the day, two more men handed themselves into a police station.

All three men – aged 23, 25 and 44 – remain in custody on suspicion of attempted murder. A fourth suspect arrested last week has been bailed.

Inspector Nick Helme said: “Even though we have made four arrests this is very much an ongoing investigation and I would like to thank the community for its help so far.

“We will always act on reports and intelligence from the public to keep our communities safe.
