Police Officers were called At 6.25am on Saturday 21 December 2019 following concerns for a man who was found at a bus stop along the B5320 Liverpool Road in Irlam.
A member of the public discovered the body and quickly informed the emergency services who were on scene within minutes.
Officers unfortunately discovered that the man had sadly passed away, a tent has been erected around the area the man was found and police remain in attendance this morning whilst forensics officers carry out their investigations into the circumstances surrounding his death.
There are rumours circulating on social media that the man was stabbed but police stress that there is no evidence to suggest that is the case.
The mans identity has not yet been disclosed by police and so we ask that he not be identified on social media until such time his family have been informed.
Police temporarily closed the road and diverted traffic earlier this morning but it is now passable both ways.
Anyone with information should contact police on 0161 856 65345 quoting number 902 of 21/12/19.
