Emergency services were called to Finney Lane in Heald Green just after 4:15pm.

At least two damaged cars and a bus were visible at the scene.
One woman had to be cut free from a Citroen car, emergency services said.
She was said to be suffering from chest injuries and the roof of the vehicle was sawn off by firefighters to allow medics to safely move her.
In a statement Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue service said: “At 16:21 hours on 5th December 2019, two fire engines from Cheadle and Wythenshawe fire stations and the technical response units from Ashton-under-Lyne fire station were mobilised to a road traffic collision involving two cars on Finney Lane, Heald Green.
“Firefighters extricated one casualty from a vehicle suffering from suspected chest injuries using stabilisation and cutting equipment, lighting, and longboard.
"Fire crews were on scene for approximately 55 minutes.”
Witnesses said the woman was taken to hospital but the severity of her injuries aren't known.
