A murder investigation has been launched after a teenage boy died in north Manchester.
Officers were called to Nevin Road in the New Moston area at about 17:00 BST, Greater Manchester Police said.
Three people have been arrested in connection with the incident.
Supt Marcus Noden said: “This is a distressing and heartbreaking incident where a boy has lost his life.”
The force said it was “still trying to establish the circumstances” around the incident and several areas had been cordoned off.
“The boy’s family are being supported by our officers,” a GMP spokesperson said.
Supt Noden appealed for any witnesses or anyone with information to come forward.
He said they wanted to hear from “anyone who was in the Nevin Road area” who saw the incident take place.
“We will bring updates as we get them as the investigation continues,” he added.
