Greater Manchester Police confirm 'hoax' at Old Trafford

The Greater Manchester Police confirm that the 'suspect device' found inside Old Trafford this afternoon 'was not viable'.

The Greater Manchester Police have confirmed that the 'suspect device' found inside Old Trafford this afternoon 'was not viable'.

Old Trafford was evacuated on Sunday afternoon when security uncovered a 'suspect package' in the build-up to Manchester United's Premier League clash with Bournemouth, which was abandoned on security grounds.

"A controlled explosion" took place little before 5pm in Manchester, but developing reports on Twitter claimed that the mobile phone was 'a hoax' rather than a deadly device.

That has now been confirmed by the authorities, who have described the mobile phone attached to a gas pipe as an "incredible lifelike explosive device", but not one that could have caused casualties.

It is currently unclear when the rescheduled Premier League match will take place.
