A woman has died after a car collided twice into pedestrians in Rochdale, injuring three others. Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said a male driver, aged 49, has been arrested on suspicion of murder and remanded into custody. The woman had been airlifted to hospital after she was hit by a car in Whitworth Road. Three pedestrians, including a child, were injured in Woodgate Avenue, about two miles away.

The incidents are not being treated as terrorism-related and aren’t linked to a pre-planned Counter Terrorism Policing operation which saw a 40-year-old Iranian man arrested in Rochdale on Saturday evening. Police said the emergency services were called to road traffic collisions involving a car and pedestrians in Woodgate Avenue and Whitworth Road at around 2.30pm on Saturday (May 3).
