A man has died after an incident in Heaton Park this morning.
Police and ambulance responded after the man was found collapsed at around 10.50am.
It is believed he may have suffered a medical episode.
Members of the public gave first aid at the scene before the man was taken to hospital.
But sadly he died a short time later.
A spokesperson for GMP said it is not believed there are any suspicious circumstances and a file will be prepared for the coroner.
Eyewitnesses reported armed police in the area but it is understood this was simply because they happened to be the police closest resource.
GMP said in a statement: "At around 10:50 am , police officers were called to a report of a semi-conscious male in Heaton Park.
"Upon arrival members of the public had begun first aid."
"NWAS also attended the scene and the male was taken to hospital.
