Paramedics attended and called in Greater Manchester Police, where the man in his 40s had been found to be unresponsive. It has been confirmed he suffered serious head injuries and remains in a serious but stable condition in hospital following the incident.
Police cordoned off a bus stop on the south side of the road, heading out of Manchester city centre. The man was taken to hospital for treatment.
