🚨 **Rochdale Park Attacks: Suspect Arrested** 🚨
A man in his 20s has been arrested following two alarming attacks on women in Rochdale. The incidents, which happened less than two hours apart, have rocked the community.
Police swooped in after receiving two distressing reports. The first came from Broadfield Park around 6.15am, where a woman reported a shocking assault by a stranger. Shortly after, at 8:38am, a second woman reached out from Milnrow Memorial Park with a similar attack claim.
Description from both victims: a black male, donned in a three-piece suit or smart black clothes with a dark coat, and notably carrying a briefcase. Thanks to vigilant police work, CCTV footage captured a suspect leaving the Coco Lounge at 5am – crucial evidence in the ongoing investigation.
