- Description
- 4.50pm on a summer evening, a van pulls up outside an address on a residential street in Manchester. The occupants of the vehicle are delivering drugs to a local crack house. As the driver gets out and goes to the door, a masked man bursts out and shoots repeatedly into the van - and then across the street at the escaping driver. The passenger of the vehicle, Luke Graham, was shot through the chest, and despite efforts of local people and first responders, he later died in hospital. GMP’s Major Incident Team (MIT) launch a murder investigation. The suspects are believed to be members of a violent Organised Crime Group. As the investigation unfolds, the police team meticulously piece together evidence from CCTV and phone records to uncover a large-scale conspiracy suspected to have involved up to 10 members of the OCG.
