A large police presence involving riot vans and specialist officers was spotted in Weaste after reports of armed officers boxing in and surrounding a black Mercedes on Eccles Old Road close to Buile Hill Park on Sunday afternoon.
Witnesses have reported that the vehicle had sustained a smashed drivers window and officers pointed assault riffles at the three male occupants before dragging them out of the vehicle and searching them.
We have contacted Greater Manchester Police for comment.
