Bolton flats murder probe : Six arrested

By Julian Thorpe

 

SIX people have been arrested on suspicion of murder after a man plunged to his death at a block of flats in Bolton.

 

Police were called to the Fernstead block of flats in Blackshaw Lane, Deane, shortly before 7.30pm last night, where they found the body of the man, aged 44, at the rear of the building.

 

It is believed he fell about 20 feet from the first floor balcony of the flats.

 

He was taken to the Royal Bolton Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

 

Police arrested six people - three men and three women - on suspicion of murder.

 

The tower block, which is one of three in the area, was cordoned off by police who were interviewing residents.

 

Floodlights were set up at the back of the flats and a police tent was put up at the scene. A semi-detached house in nearby Hibernia Street, which is a short walk away, was also cordoned off by police.

 

A police spokesman said: "We were called to the flats. Six people have been arrested on suspicion of murder."

It will be smack heads, chucking other smackheads out of windows.

Well, I wondered that but couldn't have put it as eloquently as thee!

Wouldn't smack heads be too weak to throw? Suppose there was 6 of 'em. Seems the area for that sort of business anyway.

quite a starling observation. Bet he felt a tit when he didn't fly. let's not crow about it though. the eagle-eyed amongst you will note that I've managed four bird based puns in one post.
