Two boxes of extremely powerful fireworks have been found dumped at the side of a road in Gorton.

Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service found them on Textile Street off Gorton Lane yesterday.

They're said to be so powerful they require people to be at least 25 metres away from them before they are lit.

They've been put in a secure storage unit and an investigation's underway to establish who's resposible.
