Police Lockdown Stand Lane After Disturbance

0:00On March 30, police swarmed Stan Lane in Radcliffe this afternoon after reports of a disturbance around 2.15 pm. Armed officers rolled up with firearms, riot shields, and even counterterrorism units, turning the area into a full lockdown near a local business. The response was massive, with multiple police fans and undercover cars blocking the road in both directions. They put up an avoid area warning and bus routes guy rerouted to keep traffic moving elsewhere. One lookers gathered as counterterrorism teams positioned outside of building, watching the heavy scene unfold. Folks in the area had to steer clear while everything got sorted. About three hours later, greater Manchester police gave the all clear, saying it's not being treated as terror related and was just an isolated incident. Things have calmed down now, with roads reopening and no ongoing threats reported, but it shows how seriously they take these calls.
