Shocking moment woman wields huge GUN in broad daylight on Manchester street

THIS is the shocking moment a woman wields a huge GUN in broad daylight on the streets of Manchester.

The woman was seen stalking the streets with four companions while holding the air rifle – as terrified onlookers in Swinton, Salford, feared for their lives.


Police have confirmed they arrested a 34-year-old woman and seized the air rifle, along with four knives, during a search.

In the harrowing clip filmed just before 5pm, the woman was seen striding with the terrifying gun, surrounded by four others.

Witnesses said it looked like the woman was "stalking" someone as she had a "look of focus" – while they feared she would turn around and shoot at them.

The woman brandishing the gun then pointed at something in the distance on Stanwell Road – before running to her car.
