A 16-year-old boy and a 20-year-old man have suffered serious injuries following a double stabbing in Manchester.

According to Greater Manchester Police (GMP), the attack occurred around 7pm yesterday, near Rushford Street and Purcell Street in Levenshulme.

Both victims were taken to hospital, but no arrests have been made.

“You may notice additional officers deployed in the local area while we conduct our enquiries. Please do not hesitate to speak to them if you have any concerns or information you’d like to share.  

“We are urging anyone who was in the area this evening who may have seen or heard something, or anyone who has any information that will assist our enquiries, to come forward and speak with police.
