Greater Manchester Police Detectives are investigating the murder of a 19-year-old University student and are appealing to members of the public for information.

At around 2am on Wednesday 26 October 2022, officers were alerted to the stabbing on Wilmslow Road.

Officers attended and established that a 19-year-old man had been stabbed. CPR was commenced at the scene.

The man was taken to hospital but tragically passed away a short time later as a result of his injuries.

His next of kin have been informed and specially trained officers have been deployed to support them at this difficult time.

Detective Superintendent Neil Jones of Greater Manchester Police South Manchester Division said: "This was a terrible crime which has robbed a young man of his life and my thoughts are with his family at this devastating time.

"I understand it will cause distress and concern to many in Fallowfield and across Manchester more widely, including our large student community.

"The investigation is in its early stages, but I can assure you that our officers are working round the clock and carrying out extensive enquiries to establish the full circumstances surrounding this incident.

"We are actively pursuing leads and will relentlessly pursue the offender to ensure they are brought to justice.

"There will be more officers out on the streets in Fallowfield and the surrounding area over the coming days conducting high visibility and plain clothes patrols to gather intelligence and reassure the community.

"Greater Manchester Police operates a Student Safe Operation with our partners on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights where our officers patrol the student areas at night, and these efforts will ramp up and be given extra resources.

"I hope this goes someway to reassure the community and if anyone has any information about this incident or has any concerns, I urge you to speak to these officers. They are there to help and support you."

Anyone with any information should contact GMP by calling 101 quoting Log 240 of 26/10/22. Alternatively, you can report information via www.gmp.police.uk

Members of the public can upload any information including photos, videos and CCTV via our Major Incident Public Portal following this link:

Information can also be shared anonymously via the independent charity - Crimestoppers - on 0800 555 111.
