THREE 'courageous' police officers attended a regular vehicle stop after spotting a moped being 'driven erratically... but 'no one could have prepared them for how their day would end!
Neighbourhood Sergeants Marc Fosrter and Tim Ansell, along with PC Marcus Wolstencroft from Greater Manchester Police, attended the incident on Wood Road, on the border of Stretford and Whalley Range on July 26 last year. The trio had attempted to bring the driver of a moped to a stop before the bike was later involved in a collision with a car.
But while two of the officers were responding to the crash, in which an 18-year-old was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving, another man, Jacob Brown, suddenly approached them and viciously attacked them with a knife in the street.
