Five people have been re-arrested on suspicion of the murder of a teenager. Groundworker Callum Riley, 17, was found badly injured and 'screaming for help' in the garden of a property on Atholl Drive in Heywood in the early hours of Saturday, September 17 last year.
He died a short time later and a murder probe was launched. The coroner's record shows Callum's provisional cause of death as a stab wound. Seven people were arrested as part of the investigation with six being bailed and one released under investigation.
In a statement issued tonight (Thursday) Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said: "Five people - three males aged 17, 25 and 33 and two females aged 18 and 34 - have been re-arrested on suspicion of murder today (9/3/23) and remain in custody for questioning in connection with the death of 17-year-old Callum Riley in Heywood in September 2022."

There was a huge outpouring of grief on social media following his death as hundreds of people paid tribute to Callum - who pals affectionately called 'Russell' due to his likeness as a child to a character in the Pixar film Up.
A vigil took place in Heywood and hundreds of people lined the streets of the town ahead of his funeral. Last month, Callum's mother Tracy Marsland spoke to the Manchester Evening News and paid a heartbreaking tribute to her son.
"Callum was extremely popular. I don't think you'll find anybody in Heywood that hasn't got something nice thing to say about him" she said.
"He had a lovely heart and was fun and loving. He was good with me, caring and kind. He was a beautiful soul. I love him millions and miss him immeasurably."
