A teenage boy has been left seriously injured after being 'deliberately' knocked off his moped in Oldham.
Police said they were called to Propps Hall Drive in Failsworth around 5.15pm on Friday evening.
Officers found a teenage boy next to a moped.
He had suffered a serious leg injury.
Paramedics also attended and the boy, whose age has not been disclosed, was taken to hospital.
He remains there for treatment and is now in a stable condition, a Greater Manchester Police (GMP) spokesman said today.
"Initial enquiries suggest the boy was deliberately hit by another vehicle" they added.
A police cordon remained in place last night and a white-coloured moped could be seen lying inside the section of the road which had been taped off.
An investigation is underway and no arrests have yet been made.
Police are now urging anyone who may have witnessed the incident, or who may have information, to come forward.
Anyone with information is asked to report it online, if able, at www.gmp.police.uk or by calling call 101 quoting incident 2125 of 02/07/2021. Details can be passed, anonymously, to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
