Police have released pictures of a stash of potentially deadly weapons that were discovered on moorland in Salford after nearby homes were evacuated.
Armed police, bomb disposal experts and military officers descended on Kersal Moor last Friday (May 27) after the police 'received information' from a member of the public.
Some residents who lived nearby had to be evacuated from their homes as police cordoned off footpaths onto the moorland. The bomb disposal robot was spotted scouring the area as sniffer dogs also joined the search.
