Range Rover gang armed with a 'Samurai sword' pelt house with gas bottles in terrifying attack
03.05.2022 - 14:41 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Witnesses have described the shocking moment a gang armed with a 'Samurai sword' began throwing gas bottles at a house in a terrifying broad daylight attack. The violence erupted on Sunday afternoon on Propps Hall Drive in Failsworth, Oldham.
CCTV footage seen by the Manchester Evening News shows a grey Range Rover pull up outside the house at 5pm as the men inside the 4x4 gesticulate towards the people inside. Around six people then come out of the semi-detached house, armed with weapons including what appears to be knives, sticks and bricks, and begin hitting the Range the Rover, which speeds off.

Seventeen minutes later the Range Rover returns and a male brandishing what appears to be a sword gets out of the vehicle and walks into the front garden. Five or six blue gas canisters are thrown at the house, smashing the front window. Again a number of people armed with weapons come out of the house and the Range Rover drives off.
A neighbour, who asked not to be named, said police arrived shortly after. The neighbour added: "One of the lads had a Samurai sword. They came out of the house with machetes, sticks and a golf club.
"This happened on a Sunday afternoon. It's a nightmare."
The man said there had been problems with the neighbours for the last seven years. He added: "The windows are always getting smashed - they've been put through half a dozen times since Christmas. The house has been egged, it's been shot at with paintball guns.
"A car was torched on the road last year. I have been complaining for years, but nothing gets done. It's getting worse and worse."
