A section of Weaste Lane towards the junction with Liverpool Street has been cordoned off by police this evening after residents reported hearing a number of loud bangs in the vicinity.
A cordon is also in place on Willows Road and police forensics officers are reportedly at the scene.
A video posted to Twitter shows police vehicles blocking the opening to Weaste Lane at its junction with Liverpool Street.
We have approached Greater Manchester Police for further information and will update this post accordingly.
