Greater Manchester Police have released an appeal to identify a person seen acting suspiciously in the early hours of Saturday 29 March 2025 on Coronation Street, Heywood.
The incidents occurred between 1am and 5am and reportedly extended to nearby Magdala Street and Middleton Road. The nature of the suspicious behaviour has not been publicly disclosed by police, but it is understood that the individual was captured on multiple doorbell and CCTV cameras in the area.
