Operation Marshall is an initiative to tackle the criminality associated with car cruise events and its impact on the community. One of these car cruise events ended in tragedy in 2018 when Sophie Smith, a teenager from Bury, was hit by driver who lost control of his car and careered into a crowd of spectators on Europa Way in Trafford Park.
The driver, Scott Watkins, was imprisoned later in the same year for causing death by dangerous driving and a number of other driving offences.
