Summary
A tense night in Manchester’s Piccadilly Gardens ended with a stabbing, arrests, and police crackdown—though the victim’s injuries aren’t life-threatening. Two people were detained: a 22-year-old on suspicion of possessing an offensive weapon, and a 24-year-old for affray. The man may not be the primary suspect, adding intrigue. Tram services were briefly disrupted, but are now recovering. Police have issued a dispersal order until Friday morning to restore calm and safety as they investigate what sparked the chaos.
