In May this year, off-duty officers helped arrest a man after a 17-year-old suffered injuries in an assault at Victoria Station.

The teenage boy suffered injuries not believed to be life-threatening during an assault at Manchester Victoria Station, on the morning of Friday, May 19.

An 18-year-old was arrested on suspicion of a section 18 assault.

There were approximately a dozen off-duty officers on a group trip at the station at around 10.45am, but they were quick to action after witnessing the assault, detaining the man and awaiting backup from on-duty colleagues.

The officers, from branches including the city of Manchester district and specialist operations units, managed to file their reports before continuing their day out.
