Murder charge after man killed during car theft

A man has been charged with murder after a 57-year-old man died while apparently trying to stop the theft of his Land Rover.

Paramedics found Christopher Hanleys body on Olympic Street in the Beswick area of Manchester on Saturday.

Marvin Sutton, 35, will appear before magistrates later, Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said.

A 43-year-old man has been bailed on suspicion of assisting an offender.

The force has urged anyone with information about Mr Hanleys death - in what it described as an attempted car theft - to come forward.
