Storms blamed as thousands of fish die in Quays

DISTRESSING images have emerged showing thousands of dead fish floating on the water in and around Salford Quays.

The M.E.N. first revealed the tragedy on Tuesday, with the Environment Agency confirming an investigation was under way.

A spokesman confirmed it has been dealing with multiple reports of 'fish in distress' and said it's believed to have been caused by 'a 'natural event caused by high temperatures and low atmospheric pressure as a result of thunderstorms, causing low dissolved oxygen levels.

Now, fresh photographs sent to us capture the scale of the issue.

One person enjoying the sun at the Quays sent the M.E.N. a series of new photographs from the scene yesterday, as others shared similar, distressing images on social media.
