A City United in Sympathy

    Manchester’s two major football clubs both paid tribute to the Greater Manchester Police officers killed on duty this week.

    Manchester City flew their club flag at half mast outside their Etihad Stadium ground while Manchester United’s players wore black armbands as a mark of respect. Other local clubs have also marked the deaths of PC Fiona Bone and PC Nicola Hughes with tributes.

    Greater Manchester Police has been overwhelmed with messages of support and condolence from people across the region, the country and the world.

    A book of condolence is available online at www.gmp.police.uk for anyone who wishes to leave messages for the two officers.
