Officers investigating series of thefts from the Glade of Light Memorial appeal for help to identify a male they want to speak to

On three separate occasions in May and June 2022, flowers have been stolen from the Glade of Light - which is dedicated to the memory of those who sadly died following the incident at Manchester Arena in May 2017.

Chief Inspector Wignall, of GMP's City of Manchester district, says: “This memorial is really precious to the family and friends of the victims as well as people across Greater Manchester who were impacted by the attack.

“Whilst we are carrying out our own enquiries, I ask anyone who can help identify the male in the CCTV image to contact us or Crimestoppers immediately.”

Anyone with information should contact 0161 856 1930 or [email protected] quoting 4 20/06/22 . Information can also be shared anonymously, via the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
