Stabbings and Chilli Oil in Ashton-under-Lyne | Manchester News
Description
Tuesday night in Ashton-under-Lyne turned chaotic as police responded to multiple downtown incidents, resulting in two men hospitalized with stab wounds—possibly aggravated by a mysterious liquid now suspected to be chilli oil. The 44- and 50-year-old victims are not in critical condition, but the stabbings sent streets into lockdown. Two suspects, a 30-year-old man and a 22-year-old woman, are now in custody on suspicion of grievous bodily harm, with authorities believing the attacks are linked. Forensics scoured Stamford Street, Warrington Street, and Wood Street, where a cordon remains Wednesday. Police urge anyone with info—eyewitnesses, dashcam or phone footage—to come forward via non-emergency line or online chat as they ramp up patrols to restore calm.
