Armed police storm Trafford Centre car park in 'gun' drama

THIS is the moment armed police stormed one of the Trafford Centre car parks after reports of a man with a gun.

The drama unfolded shortly after 1pm yesterday.

A call was made to police claiming a man was carrying a firearm on Barton Road in Eccles.

A suspect was then traced to one of the shopping centre's car parks.

Video sent to the M.E.N. shows a number of armed officers holding their firearms and shouting as one person walks away with their hands in the air.
