Police have launched an investigation after eight men were involved in a machete fight in a quiet residential road.
Officers were called to Car Bank Avenue in Atherton, Greater Manchester, shortly before 11am on Monday following reports that a group of men were fighting with the large blades.
One man was found with minor injuries and three cars that had earlier been involved in a collision – a silver Fiat Stilo, a black Vauxhall Astra and a blue Vauxhall Omega – were abandoned on the same street.
There have been no arrests and the victim did not require hospital treatment.
Police have appealed for witnesses.
DS Craig Hurst from Greater Manchester police said: “This is an unbelievable incident on the streets of Atherton. I know the community will be alarmed but we are putting all our efforts into finding those responsible.
“There will be extra police in the area and anyone with any concerns can speak to our officers.”
