If you are out and about in Manchester today you may notice a larger than normal emergency services presence, don't be alarmed it is just a training programme and not a real incident.
Greater Manchester Police and partner agencies, today (Monday 28 February 2022), took part in an exercise at the AO Arena in Manchester City Centre.
Based on a mock scenario, not related to counter terrorism policing, the exercise tested the multi-agency response to incidents and emergencies, ensuring we work together to deliver an outstanding service.
Inspector Edward Goss, of GMP's Specialist Operation Branch, said:
Quote"It is really important for police officers and staff, alongside partner agencies, to be given opportunities to test the response to incidents and emergencies like this.
"Exercises support our value to be a learning organisation which delivers outstanding service whilst keeping people safe and caring for victims.
"I would like to use this opportunity to thank members of the public who were in the area at the time for their cooperation. I would also like to thank our partner agencies, particularly the AO Arena, for their involvement in this exercise."
