He is being quizzed in custody by detectives on suspicion of possession of a firearm. Yesterday, a stretch of Fernclough Road was cordoned off by police while Tactical Aid Unit officers carried out investigations with sniffer dogs also used.
Patrols were also stepped up in the area. Harpurhey councillor, Pat Karney, reacted with 'alarm' at the incident, which he said deeply worried local residents.
He told the Manchester Evening News: "We welcome the extra police patrols in Harpurhey. Local residents are alarmed and anxious.
