A 16-YEAR-OLD girl has been found hanged at a house in Breightmet.
Tributes to Aleysha Rothwell have been pouring in from devastated friends and family, including her mum, on Facebook and Twitter since she was found dead at her home in Crossdale Road, Breightmet, on Thursday.
Dozens of shocked neighbours gathered in the street as police cordoned off the address and paramedics rushed to her aid from about 3pm.
Police said they were called by the North West Ambulance Service.
A spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said: “At this stage we do not believe this incident to be suspicious.”
An NWAS spokesman confirmed that an ambulance was called to the address and took a patient to the Royal Bolton Hospital.
The house was cordoned off by police until about 5pm.
Friends and well wishers paid tribute to Aleysha on Twitter and Facebook.
