A woman was killed and two people seriously hurt in the stabbing on Barnard Road<\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a 43-year-old woman was stabbed to death and two other people left with life-threatening injuries. <\/p>\n

Police were called to Barnard Road in Gorton at about 23:20 BST on Sunday after reports three people had been stabbed.<\/p>\n

The woman died at the scene while a 17-year-old girl and a 64-year-old man were taken to hospital for treatment.<\/p>\n

Initial inquiries suggest the suspect, aged 22, was known to the victims, Greater Manchester Police said. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The road in Gorton near Longsight has been cordoned off while police investigate<\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

The arrested man has been held in custody where he is set to be interviewed by detectives.<\/p>\n

The injured girl and man suffered “serious stab wounds” in the attack and their condition is “believed to be life-threatening at this time”, the police said.<\/p>\n

Barnard Road has been closed off while officers investigate behind a police cordon.<\/p>\n

Three forensic tents have been put up, one in a garden, one in the road, and one at a property in the street.<\/p>\n

Plain-clothed officers have been seen knocking on doors, while others in white overalls and protective clothing have been seen in the road.<\/p>\n

One person, who lives within the cordon, told BBC Radio Manchester<\/a> he woke up to hear a “lot of screaming and noises”.<\/p>\n

Another person said “you don’t expect to see such a large police scene” in the area, while another said it was unexpected for a “nice, quiet” place.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The stabbing is being treated as an “isolated incident” by the police.<\/p>\n

Det Supt Toby Facey said officers had arrived on the scene “within minutes” of reports being made to police and arrested the man.<\/p>\n

He said the investigation was in its “very early stages”, and appealed for anyone with any information about the attack to come forward.<\/p>\n

This included anyone in the surrounding area near Barnard Road at about 23:00 BST, he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe understand that the local community and further afield across Greater Manchester will be rightly shocked and concerned after waking up and hearing this tragic news this morning.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur thoughts remain with those affected and their loved ones at this difficult time. We are doing all we can to support them,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
