Detectives investigating the death of a man in Tameside have made two arrests as a murder investigation continues.
Thomas Campbell, 38, was found dead at an address on Riverside in Mossley at around 10.30am on Sunday, July 3.
Despite the best efforts of emergency services, he was pronounced dead at the scene and a murder investigation has continued since.
A 31-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder last Thursday and a second man, aged 37, was also arrested on suspicion of murder on Friday night. They both remain in custody at this time.
Detective Inspector Mark Davis, from GMP’s Major Incident Team, said: “These arrests are huge steps in our murder inquiry as we piece together what was a horrific attack and get the family the answers they so badly need.
“Our investigation is very much continuing into what we still believe to have been a targeted and deliberate incident.
“Anyone who may have any information is urged to do the right thing and report it. This can be done anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, or as always, information can be passed to us by using our LiveChat service online, or 101.
