Ryan Lowry: Last News

"Ashley wouldn't hurt me. He listens to me." Those were the words that Ryan Lowry said to his wife Michelle, as he prepared to leave the house to go to the aid of his mentally ill cousin, one February night in 2020.

A pair of brothers that reigned over an organised crime gang that supplied class A drugs across Greater Manchester have had their network blown open.

An NHS trust that jurors felt 'probably contributed' to Ryan Lowry's death through a series of failings has issued an apology following his inquest. Members of the jury ruled yesterday (March 19) that Mr Lowry, from Marple, was 'unlawfully killed' by his cousin Ashley Glennon, who had been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.

An investigation has reportedly been launched at The London Clinic over claims staff tried to access the Princess of Wales’s private medical records.

A man has been charged with assault after an incident outside a takeaway in Failsworth. Police were called to reports a man was injured in Oldham Road, Failsworth, on Sunday evening (March 17). A 42-year-old man remains in hospital in a serious, life-threatening condition, officers said.

A man who killed his cousin with an axe could have been arrested before the attack if a call to police had not been left on hold for more than 40 minutes, an inquest has heard. Ashley Glennon was sentenced to an indefinite hospital order in January 2021 after pleading guilty to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility, following the killing of his cousin, Ryan Lowry.

The family of a man killed by his cousin - who was suffering with severe mental ill-health - want answers over the axe attacker's care prior to the tragedy. Ryan Lowry's loved ones there were 'collective failings' and a 'complete lack of joined-up thinking between agencies' in the 'care and supervision' of Ashley Rowen.
