Officers are appealing for information after a dog walker was hit by a car on a busy Salford road. The pedestrian, a man in his 60s, was walking with his dog on Great Clowes Street.
Greater Manchester Police says that as the man walked near to the junction with Gordon Street, a car collided with him. Emergency services rushed out to the scene, and the man was taken to hospital with serious injuries.
